Thanks for your service to those of us who enjoy the freedom you fight for.  You always have a place to bowhunt in MO if you run out of deer in OK.  God bless, Brady

The deer are all getting fat, antlers are thick and velvety, and eveyone here wants to hear your hunting stories this season. Thank you, stay safe, and enjoy what you have fought for.

You're so short you could sit on a dime and dangle your legs.

God Bless All of You & Thank you!
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"
