how about a big Tradgang welcome to Jeff Vadney who jined not long ago. many know him as Bear Misser, want to explain that one Mr. Vadney???
notice his pretty powder blue arrows which weigh about 1200 grains, or so it seems!

Marty is a good fellow whom I wished lived a little closer. Ken, you aught to buy his arrows, they shoot good from your bow   :readit:  

I had a great time shooting with everyone, it was good to get out.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    I'm glad Thorny recommended it.
Relax,

LOL, I had no idea you were shooting video when everyone told me to step up.  I thought you wanted me to have the same yardage as everyone else and not have a handicap excuse as far as distance.    :readit:

Tracks are only good if there is something standing in them. Had a good time today....shot like a bum but it was fun, nice to get out and do it with good folks!!

Thanks for sharing Ken and welcome Jeff. The only thing better is to get out for some hunting/shooting ourselves.

this was not from today but by far my favorite picture of Charlie after he lost his arrow in about 100 feet of snow, looks a little disgusted with me taking the picture!

I guess if the weather is going to stay this mild and snow free we should do this a bit more often. We'll most likely get 2 feet next week and it drop to 20 below now that I made that statement!   :biglaugh:

That was a good day!

Looks like a great time!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
