Yup, I got it Shawn. I get a notification via email, and I read it there. I wanna leave it alone until THE DAY, just so I don't delete it or hit the link by mistake or whatever. I constantly reinvent ways of mucking things up.  :rolleyes:  What if my computer crashes? And then what if a virus eats up the TG PM files? What if..is the sky falling or is it just me?

Drives me nuts to do it at the last minute like that. Doesn't leave me any time to fix whatever I do wrong!

  :scared:  
(  :jumper:  )
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

The hunt for a good pair of pruners!!  :biglaugh:

I think each one of us should carry a set of pruners on this hunt. Not so much to get us out of a thicket but to get at our arrow and/or bunny after a shot.  ;)  Although that's what some of the small kids can be used for.  :D

Yea good idea Mike   :smileystooges:   I'll get Joe some safety glasses and a pointed hat so he can dive right in and get my arrows, I'm sure he'll go for that   :bigsmyl:

You mean this one Shawn??  

 

If you look close, you can see the end where I actually pruned away brush just so I could draw my bow in there......just above the middle left of the picture is the hole the bunny was in, I could actually see his butt end there.  I shot him straight down at about two feet, I never would have had a shot of any kind if I didn't have pruners with me!

I have no clue what you mean, Shawn, but that's got to be one of my favorite quotes yet.

I got to witness that whole thing first hand, and I just about spilled my coffee all over reading that post!

Kingstaken....I won TWO bows.  :D  

Shawn, I dont think I can hunt at all for the next week or two, docs orders. Orders or not, I will be hunting in Feb.  :goldtooth:  

Jim...ya might want to add a suit of full leather to that pointy hat and set of goggles. Poor kid. Im sure he would do it though...  :biglaugh:

OMG, there's a southern tent preacher in Albany. He's handling snakes and laying his hands on the prunerless.   :eek:  

I better take the dog to the park...   :rolleyes:

Think I'm gonna have to wear a shirt to the hunt with that exact statement on it. Just to good a quote to waste...
