Mine was two of my favorite things at the time...although I've been spending a lot more time chasing birds with my labs than bow hunting the past few years. 

Had to say goodbye to the one in my avatar a couple years ago (at 13.5 yrs), but have a new hunting buddy now and have already starting making memories with him.  Hunted pheasant in MN, MT and ND, and waterfowl in ND last season...and he just turned two in March.  Can't wait 'til next season!!!

I am starting to resemble my handle, but when I coined it I was a lot younger, the Navy Mascot is a goat and Navy Chiefs are considered the Old Goats of the Navy as they are generally the older members of a crew, they call our sleeping area the Goat Locker etc..

I live on a small farm in the boonies (suburbs) a couple of miles down the road from Irma, WI (about a dozen houses, a church, and a PO).

From a varmit hunting forum. I used to hunt jack rabbits for predation control. Varmit rifle and binocholars.
Then I found my old bows.

Because it is what I have liked doing for as long as I can remember, and would like to keep doing it for another 60+ years but I know that is impossible.
If I'd known that I would live this long I'd have taken better care of myself.

Soon to be thirty four years ago Dad and I was spring gobbler hunting.  We set up in the wee hours of early morning and every time we got a gobble a hawk would come in and the bird would shut up.  Moved three times same thing.  Decided to relocate and on the way back to the vehicle I seen a huge nest in a beech tree.  Climbed up to investigate, Dad stayed on guard.  Three little goshlings in the nest, next thing one of the hawks dive bombed me giving a cut in the eyelid requiring five stitches and puncture wounds in the skull.  The good Lord was with me the eyelid cut did not go through the eyelid into the eyeball.

Dad: Boy, if you do... your name will be_Mudd____.

Dad: Boy! If you don't,your name will be_Mudd___.

Dad: Boy, I will stomp a mud-hole in you and walk it dry!!

That meant that dad was really mad.

It got to the point when asked "What's your name son?...Me: About half of the time it's Mudd!!

God bless,Mudd

I didn't know anything about trad archery when I signed up on this site.
Didn't know much about the site either,,or the class of people here.
Anyway..I didn't want to use my name at the time and had no real nicknames,,,that were appropriate anyway..lol
So I was reading this book and a character was named Zradix..figured good enough.

The "slowbow" part was inspired by the 40# Stemmler semi-recurve a shot for a good while. Just added my name to that.

Longtoke is a reference from the song "wagon wheel" that me and one of my best friends like to play together, also I used to enjoy pipe tobacco.  I have quit smoking tobacco but I still get a kick playing music with my friend, that song in particular.
