“In my younger days”

Post a picture of a good memory of a younger you.
This is in the Blue Mountains of Oregon, about 40 years ago, on an elk hunt with Tom Mussatto.

Pic of a pic. Not sure on the year, but it was over 18 years ago easily. I wish I would've taken more pics back then.

This is without a doubt the worst picture I have ever taken but it is pushing 30 years ago now and Chuck built the bow in his younger days. I could draw it in my you ger days. The arrows were built by a guy named Bruce Witzel? I’m not sure of the spelling but I have not heard of him in a long time

Killdeer that statement says a lot.  For many of us.  May God continue to bless you.
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Wish I had thought about “taking a picture “ when I was younger with my bow. But then all we had were rabbits and pheasant to hunt. I do want to thank those that have shared their pictures.
