Well I have cleaned my BOWS. Gone through and rearranged my Hunting Pack. can't build any arrows...NO AD (TradHeavy) shafts. Cleaned off my IN HOUSE work bench.

This is going on way to long. We haven't been ABOVE BELOW for the better part of a WEEK  :readit:

Iron Bull, I feel your pain. Its been raining here since Friday and should finally quit this evening sometime. We havent had a lick of snow the whole year. Its suppose to get cold tonight and tomorrow H/26 L/22 (ha!) I am keeping busy buliding arrows and plan to use my new crester and paint kit soon to purty them up a bit. Just trying to keep my head above water....literally!

Freezing rain/ice for days now and I'm house bound too. If I make one more arrow I'll bust the seems of my office.

Have had a run on strings for Jack Howard bows in the last couple of weeks and that helps keep me busy... the strings for the Gamemaster Jet have been a particular problem and that's kept me hoppin', but have it worked out now.

Biding my time to do some varmint calling. Looks like the last day of deer season will go bust for me.

By the way. Those pictures don't look so cold!! How do we know you didn't have the thermometer in the Frigidaire for an hour?

It isn't nearly as cold here in Iowa, but still cold enough to keep my out of my shop and barn. I just bought a gallon of neatsfoot oil that I am going to rub into some harness leather and saddles.  Have to bring them inside to warm up first.  I have too much stuff to do outside that I would like to be working on and the cold does start wearing on you pretty quick.

BRRRR!!!!    :scared:  
Looks like you could use a road trip to Texas!

I guess some days being stuck in the office at work doesn't seem quite so bad after all.....

Is that outside shop heated?

You got snowshoes, don'tcha? You could go out and create a whole "snowman" 3D course! A little food coloring and you have colorful critters to shoot at.  :cool:  

Snow is great for bloodtrailing, and SOMETHING has to be in season.  :bigsmyl:  

As long as it's somebody else freezing his yassir off, I am the IDEA person!  :archer:

Lewis;
I hope you were using the Vista Back quiver.

It is nasty wet and cold here.  Just not used to that anymore.

The cold is moving in as I type, should go great with all the flooding we have here, my whole archery course is totally under water, and it's almost 2 feet over our country road so we are kinda cut off, but I have my little monster and it can go through about 4 ft.Should be very, very interesting when it all freezes though.
 
Rob, How ya make a hot toddy?
