I was fortunate enough to be this year's Special Guest to the Joan Leonard Memorial Bunny Hunt where Miss Hope and Miss Faith were making thier appearance. The second day of the hunt I carried Miss Hope. Like I already knew she was a great shooter. I was able to shoot the 55/60 chundoo shafts I'd brought along for my old longbow out of her just fine.

Here's my favorite picture I brought home. Big Ed is my Hero and welcome at my fire anytime!! We ran this bunny a couple circles in the rose briers then he tried taking refuge under a log. Shooting thru an incredible bunch of trash Ed pinned him in with a quiver full of arrows,  ;)  I was able to finish the job with Miss Hope.
 

Thanks Brent for donating these two very nice bows to such a great cause!!    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Cool pic! my left hand starts to tingle every time I see Miss Hope, we met at ATAR and my bow arm will never forget her!

Doug...did you hit that bunny in the NECK?

Evidently that was enough!
You have nerves of steel there, Doug. I can only imagine the petrifying fear that would freeze my very thoughts, seeing that gaping maw hurtling toward me, twin skulls of Death glaring from the enraged bunny's eyes...

Doesn't pay to cross you when you get a wild hare, eh?

I've said it before, say it again, I aint sure what Killie just said, but it sure sounded purty. Doug, glad you got to shoot her again. Making meat, icing on the cake. The bride and I sure miss you guys up there on top of the world.

I sure would like to give that bow a good home when she gets done with her whirlwind tour.

Me too Bill,
Hopefully she will have a little Kansas blood on her when I get it.  :)

Anyone know where hope is at?  I am on the list for her, but no sign of her yet.

My bad Shawn, I must of had my old address on the list, and I knew I was getting Her in March, forgot if it was the 1st part or 2nd part of march.

When Superkiak asked where she was at, I checked my dates and saw she should of been here and left already then I PM you.

I think this is my fault for not posting my new address, I got the postal # and I will find where she's at.
