The place we were first going to was inaccessible because the road was still buried under snow so we went down to the river bottom. This used to be a place packed with deer and squirrels when the farmer who owned the back field was still alive and planting corn. It was nothing to see 30 deer together, today we found one set of old tracks. Didn't see a single squirrel either.

What the heck. You have no snow on the ground and you live north of me. I wish the snow around here would hurry up and melt. I hate losing arrows.

Gee, that brown bow is hard to see. A good way to spend time, for sure.

Looks like you have 2x penetration there.  Would that qualify as a pass thru, since stumps are more ferocious and tough than a 4 legged mammal?  LOL

The water behind Rich is a great place for spring bowfishing for Pike.

Wow! Love the brown ground. I was out looking for turkeys and was walking on top of about a foot of snow. Then around noonish I started sinking in as the day warmed up. It was good excerise, not that I need it. On a good note, it was a perfect "sap run" day!

Outstanding shooting. Good thing that one stump was pretty rotted. Would have been a pain trying to get that arrow out!   :biglaugh:
