Stumpn with my Old Tom
« on: February 13, 2011, 04:26:00 PM »
With a couple feet of snow in the woods stumpn this Winter has been quite an aerobic workout. This weekend the cold broke and I took the camera along. As you will see in the photo's there is no shortage of deer in my neighborhood.
A well used deer trail makes for easier walking:
 
Deer love Buckthorn!:
 
Still a few nice ones around:
 
Anything better than stumpn with a longbow?
 
 
Horses Hoof Fungus make for great targets:
 
How can you go wrong with David Miller and Jack Bowers?:
 
And trails to be followed...

I soooooo need to be doing some of that! Nice shot of the bow and quiver hanging.
