I have a pare of black Mickie Mouse boots that I have had sense the mid 1980.
Still going strong.
I also have  a Bear K Mag from 1974.
How is that fore some old friends?
Might add, I still have my Bear Cub from the 1950s that has taken  countless frogs and rabbits in the 1960s.

I still have two old sentimental friends.

A 55 year old friend. A 1969 Bear Green Fox all fiberglass bow my Dad bought me that year. And a 50 year old friend. A 1974 Bear Grizzy my Dad also bought me in 1974. They mostly hang on the wall now days but now and then I take them down and shoot and bow hunt with them.

Mid 80s ?
I was probably wearing this when I met my good friend Dennis Allman from NCBA in 1986. A few years later I retired this shirt from the field only to get worn at a TBG, NCBA and Paradise hunt club events.

Cory,
I had a Treebark setup like yours, I umm…ummm out grew it.  Ended up giving to my hunting buddy Lenny Brown.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Terry, my hat's off to you for being able to wear the same size for 22 years. Incidentally that hat is my old friend. My older brother and I each got one when I was 6 years old.
Psalms 127:3-5 New International Version (NIV)
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.
