Well, since I see some fellow Michiganders going, we better get on the list. Put Tom and Nicole Watson down.

Went over this morning for a hunt. Almost got a shot at a big sow. She was coming across a big water oak flat and at 25 yards she busted and ran for a thicket.I was headed back to the truck and she crossed my trail from where I had first walked through.Real close to getting a shot. Here are a few pics.RC

Even if I don't see a Hog, just to share a 'Real' campfire with all these TradGangers would be the weekend of a lifetime for me.

Please put me down for the hunt.

Darren, yes, Nicole has a Northern Mist Shelton string follow bow called "Heart of Gold." She named it after her show horse. Steve went all out for her. The bow has an Osage handle, Four lams of bamboo, with a lam of Osage in the center (the heart of gold),and brown stained birds eye maple veneer. Then Steve added a bow sock with horses on it for her. Talk about spoiled.
