Mystic is short for a town I lived in, Up in Jersey called Mystic Islands (Renamed to Little Egg Harbor township)

Guido is an old nick name that I had for years.

Back in the old dial-up BBS days,, My handle was fatherGuido, Then got to be just Guido...Then in 1996 it turned into mysticguido..

I just put my name up there because I find that too many times when people hide behind handles, they tend to get keyboard Cajones.  In other words they tend to get more aggressive, stubborn, and otherwise just plain mean.  After a couple of days here I noticed it wasnt the case, but on other forums and sites it tends to happen.  So I figure if I am going to post something up I might as well be attached to it someway.

Since most of my friends still have wheels I choose to hunt alone. So they call me Lonearcher.

I make arrows.  It goes back to the old English; the arrowsmith made the points, the fletcher made the rest of the arrow.
