Hooper is just another name that we have called cottontail rabbits since I was little. My hunting buddies gave me that nick name because I love to chase the Hooper's.

Been shooting the air gap system for as long as I can remember. I know anytime someone uses the name "master" it sounds kind of cocky, but that's not what was intended. I just felt it glorified what I do best. I don't do alot of things very well but felt I could take advantage of that name at least for a while.  :)

I wanted to join a forum in 1998 and they wanted a screen name so I chose a beer that was on a hat and T shirt I recently won, Red Dog.  That was taken and the only thing close was "reddogge".  I've been reddogge on every forum in all hobbies since 1998.

And no, I don't have red hair either.

Mine comes from the first ever Elk hunt with my Dad.
He was doing the acual hunting and I was just tagging along. I was helping him look for Elk through a set of binocs and saw a bull at the top of a ridge.
The sun was behind him and there was still some velvet on his antlers. It was a beautiful site that sticks with me after all these years.
I still look for another scene like that evey time I go up.
So going back to my ancestoral roots Highelk it is.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL

Looper is my last name.  Not too imaginative, I know. I've used it on several different forums over the years.  Several years ago, I attended an outing for a golf forum.  I found it amusing that the other members called each other by their handles, instead of their names.  It was also incredibly confusing.  I was almost ostracized for calling john897, john1975.  Nerds.

Anyway, I was glad I was not  the one everyone was referring to as "LongBall" or "PutterLover".

The Bent part - as in pulling a bow back & the bending of the wood  . The Rig is the first 3 letters of my last name - hence Bent Rig .

artfaker1 or art1faker, is a take on the idea of taking a derogatory name made up for you.
Like the Led Zeppelin, Gratefull Dead, the bikers with 1 percenters and so on.
The arrowhead collectors made up artifaker for flintknappers due to some people selling fakes for originals.
The one part was not intended to imply that I am the best, but just that I was the first to use the moniker.

I started out using Dick in Seattle in hopes that someone local would notice and I might find someone to shoot with.  I hadn't been in archery for 30 years and didn't know a soul.  Got a shooting buddy for several years from it, but he moved back to Alabama this year.  Also had a couple of guys come by to learn to build bows, so it's been a useful contact idea.

Mine was about the only thing I could think up quick,last name twitchell and I like most things that have do with sticks(fly rods,bows,and the hills). I find it funny because I have allways hated my user name. Most people that hang out with me usally find some kind of play on my name, Twitchfish, Twichingstick.
