Mine comes from learning to shoot and not having an arm guard!

Like many of you here I'm simply "wild about bows" so I picked this handle back in the 1990's when I first started visiting forums on KYHunting.com and the Bowsite.  I abandoned all these forums for several years after tiring of the bickering and mean-spiritedness.  

One day I was on the steps of the Capitol in Washington D.C. and someone hollered out "Bowwild"!  I didn't even know this person visited such forums but he knew me from there.

Weird.

Mine came from my paternal grandmother, she was half Cherokee and when she visited she saw me feed a crow that used to come around beggin for scraps. When I'd give him some bread I would talk real soft to him. She gave me the name "Boy talking with crow". I shortened it to crow and added my initials.

I'm Mexican, German and Irish, but have my Hispanic skin color, any ways my uncle from my German side got me into bowhunting, and one year i killed 6 deer with my bow and while tracking one he said " we are going to call you GreatBrownKnockemDown!'  and it stuck!!

The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

I shot long range rifle competitions for a few years and was the only one who shot a 7MM. So they named me caleb7mm.

Wal, from "wally gator" just something my old man called me right from when I was a little tacker.

Horse, would have been better, as in, hung like, but genetics let me down  :(    :(  

Cheers
