"Long Arrow" comes from a Black Foot indain legend......Long time ago the Black Foot's didnot have a name for the horse, so it was called, Elk Dog and other names...Long Arrow was deaf orphan boy...taken in by Runnin' Chief..anyway Long Arrow got his hearing back..and went to great spirit and brought the horse back for his people! Good story to read. just search for "long arrow" idain chief.  :archer:

I didn't find archery on the net till the late 90's, and I was registered on a couple forums but always kept losing my registration, so I'd have to re-register (I was not very computer savvy in those days).

Around 2000 I bought a 15 year old all wood Martin bow.  I loved that thing and shot it exceptionally well but it was slooooowww.  I killed a bunch of game with it anyway.  So that's where SlowBowinMO came from, that old bow.  I stuck with that as I no longer had computer issues and registration problems.

Mine is simple. Where I live, owls are nocturnal hunters whose wings make no noise when they take to the air or are in flight.

I'm a bit partial to longbows, and my nickname probably wouldn't be allowed on a family site (or any of the names my buds usually call me).

My handle comes from my first name combined with a nickname that I have had for a long time.(Hammer down Henry) Let's just say that I have a heavy right foot.

I was going on my vary first hunt to Catalina Island in 1981, they stuff all of your gear in the bottom of the boat with 30 other hunters gear.

My friend was writing his name on his arrow box with a magic marker, I handed him my arrow box and asked him to write my name on it for me.

When we got to the Island and the deck hands started to unload a mountain of archery gear, he yelled out Kingwouldbe....... Kingwouldbe......

My friend said, that's your arrows box, everyone had a good laugh as I had to walk up and get my arrow box.

Mine comes from the Wisconin Buck and Bear Club's theme of "Let 'em go.  Let 'em grow."

I like the concept and put LT M GROW on my truck license plates long ago as that is all the letters they allow on the plate.

So when I signed up on here and needed to choose a screen name, all I could think of at that time was Lt-M-Grow and just threw it on there.

If I would have known how much I love this place and how long I would be here, I would have thought about a heck of a lot more.   And since you cannnot change it, it is what it is :-)
