Heres a few of my favorites:
Taking a noon break on my Missouri hunt- overlooking a large drainage
the nice buck I had bedded at 25 yards in MO- for over an hour- yes he escaped unscathed:
my son shooting his new bow we got at the K-zoo expo:
and one of son and gene at the show- Tyler still talks about meeting Gene and Barry and seeing Woody (he says- well not the real Woody cause he's at Gene's home where he is safe)- that's almost a direct quote from Gene to Tyler when Tyler asked if it was the real Woody.

One of my favorites. Found it right here on Tradgang after attending Cloverdale. This is Breeanna my second daughter now almost 8. I didn't even know the picture was taken. I think she was the first "Little Miss Cloverdale"

 

My oldest with a quiver she made for a 4H project. And her selfbow I made her.

I have really enjoyed looking at this thread.
I thought I would share a few of my favorite outdoor pics.

I took this from a tree stand on part of the Missouri farm that we call the park.

Most of the other wooded parts have lotsa trash (vines, brambles and sticker bushes) to wade through.  This place ...is just a walk in the park though.  I forgot to tell ya...my Uncle Tony made a sign for this stand...he call's it two bucks.  Named for the six and eight point I took out of it.


This is Countrygirl under Tom's sign in!

           

This is a really tall ladder stand I love to hunt from in the "big woods" at the Missouri farm.  I took this pic of Tom the morning we packed the stands out.  This is really a rifle stand...but I have killed a few does with a recurve from it.  I hand a lock on stand up above the top platform.  You can see forever from here!                     You can stand or sit and not be seen by what is coming from your right side.  It is usually surrounded by scrapes.  Behind this stand is about 15 yards of Buck Brush and brambles till you get to a really steep ditch.  We cross a huge field (one year it is soy next it is corm) to get to the ditch.  The deer come up outta the ditch...they are smart..after a while the look to see if you are there...when you hear them coming up you have to keep saying in your head...Don't look!  Don't look!

       

This is a picture of me in a tree in October 2003.  Tom took it on my first deer hunt.  I shot two button bucks and a doe from there.

Wonderful photos, everybody!  I hope this thread never ends.  I'm going to throw a couple more on the pile.

 

My son at Canyon de Chelles, AZ.  Magical place.


 

This was a test photo for a calendar about flintknapping.  Lots of talent in those points (I didn't make any of them - GGG).  


 

Here's another pic of my son and his best buddy after they caught this spawning sucker with their hands.  I hope they will remember being young, innocent, and excited about the world.


 

Me and my two girls.  That was a long, steep sledding hill.  The briar patch at the bottom didn't improve my looks, but couldn't hurt 'em much, either.  GGG
