Trad Hunting Partner: Pic thread

[dragonheart]

There are those individuals that you spend that cherished time each fall in the outdoors with.

There is a trust and bond there through the outdoor experience, that is quite unique.  Post up photos of your hunting buds.

Tim and myself

 

We can depend on each other in the outdoors and in our lives

Whats the bow on the left?

My husband, Mockingbird;



One of my best friends, Duffy;
Last New Year's Day, Duffy, Needlenose, Mockingbird and I were at our annual celebration on the banks of Bull Run. It was night, we had started a campfire against the frigid air, and my idiot dog went after a beaver and into the river. She is a dog that studiously avoids immersion.

The 8 or 10 foot bank was steep, and she couldn't get out. She was hanging on a vine under the overhanging trunk of a poplar, and we couldn't reach her. I was not going to lose her, so I slid down as far as I could under that tree and tried for her collar. With one arm grabbing the tree, and the other one stretched out, she was just out of reach. I was going to have to go get her, and started to step out over the water, praying that the inky stream had some sort of ledge beneath the surface. Not one to take such luck for granted, I said to those above, "I'm going in."

As I stepped toward a soaking, I felt Duffy's hand latched onto my waistband. The extra support allowed me to reach and grab the collar, and drag Spirit around the tree and up the bank, where somehow she was taken the rest of the way. If I had gone in, Duffy would likely have gone in too, and I will never forget that.



When I come back, if I can't be a raven, I wanna be ApplePie, sorta.



I am blessed.

I have several really close bowhunting buddies that I have been all over the country with.  One of them would walk through the fires of hell for me without being asked...none shoot trade bows.

Not complaining.  Love shooting my trade bows.  It is just not a selection criteria me on who I spend time with.

Deadsmple and I. I got Vaughn interested in bow hunting and the monster was created. He became a great hunting partner in no time flat. I set him up to get his first deer and I'll never forget it running past me with the arrow waving like a flag. every day hunting with Vaughn is an epic of its own.

 

 

and then there is this motley crew

My Hunting Buddie, Mark.  Not much to look at, but I wouldn't trade him for two purdy ones.  RW
