Dual shelf saves the day
« on: February 02, 2020, 08:55:13 AM »
Friday I tripped over my own two feet and dislocated my ring finger on my right hand. Off to urgent and got fixed with a splint. Wife says,  no 3/D tomorrow ,I I said not so, I can shoot left handed. I grab the dual shelf River Runner and shot the whole course lefty.......I did pretty good !!!

Congrats Ron on making a bad situation better-glad you had a good time.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Good job! I just did the same thing on the boeuf hog hunt except I tore the skin from the nail on my right ring finger. Left handed bow (not a dually) saved the day.
Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Good going Ron. I'm the same way, right or left, makes no difference.  But I shoot bad either way...

I guess when ever I go on a hunt or to a shoot I should pack a dual shelf just in case I do something foolish  :biglaugh:

Ron.....I'll get some bow pics uo when it stops raining....we have been under a flash flood warning for 4 days!

Anyhow.....here's a sneak peak of my Sunbear that I am fortunate to have.... Like I said it may be the only one in existence.

This was the results of her on her 1st hunt!
