My favorite longbow, made by a local bowyer and friend Jim Martin , Mahantango Custom Bows. From the Lenapi word for " good hunting grounds". Also the name of a local stream and valley.

Stickbender, because we bend sticks into bows, and 98 for the year of my first traditional harvest.

Mine represents the rock/ granite filled state I live in.  And the many arrows that have been claimed by rocks that seem to jump up at my arrows... :nono: or it could be my poor shooting.. :dunno: :goldtooth:

I'm so glad I started this thread, the explanations are fabulous and some are a good chuckle. I needed that today.
Thanks everybody.

Like it says. My wife actually said that I have too many hobbies one day and I started using it. Bowhunting, trapping, fishing, metal detecting, coin collecting, maybe one or two others. If I would just stick to one, I might be good at something.

My real name is too long and much too Italian. So, I chose where I’m from and added in that I’m a Mason.

Soap creek is 1mile south of where I live. Spent many hours in and around it hunting,  fishing,  etc.. Spent a lot of time there even before we lived here. My kids have also grown up spending a lots of time there as well.

In 1990ish I was bowhunting in a canoe-in camp with my mentor and we had arranged to meet at lunch-time.  We did some mid-day roving and I made a particularly good shot on a distant stump (he was a hell of an archer/bowhunter and I didn't gain much on him as a rule).  He said "c'mon stump killer, lets go hunting" and thereafter my camp name was "Stumpkiller".

I'm a fat guy (350-ish lbs. @ 6' tall), go by the name "Tony" and born in '77. Also, "Fat Tony" is one of my favorite characters on "The Simpsons," being of Sicilian descent adds to the likeness of the character. It's pretty much my username on everything...

There is a creek and a lake near by with the name Wabasis. They were named after an Indian Chief that was in this area. After choosing it for a user name for a while I did a search on his history. I should have chosen a different name.

One of my favorite species of fish, and the area code I've lived in for 34 years. Didn't give it much thought at the time.

Reading these, maybe I should have used my family camp name. When I step off the plane to join my brothers at deer camp back east, I'm Cookie again.  I do most of the cooking in camp. "Hey Cookie". Man I miss that, been too many years.
