A great Sunday morning stumping
« on: March 18, 2012, 03:52:00 PM »
I decided yesterday to get out of the city and enjoy a day afield, stumping and scouting for turkeys.

How lucky was I with the weather, unreal for that time of the year!

I took a few pictures to share with you all

First, snow melting made the little creek run wild in the woods

With a sturdy bow, a true shaft, and a stout heart, we journey forth in
search of adventure.

But the sun and the warmth of that day...

 

So let's do some stumping

And some more!
The old stumps, very wet were sooo soft today!
One of the last time I went stumping, the deep frozen stumps were breaking arras! Not today   :thumbsup:    :archer:

Going for that stump!

 

And I was lucky on that one!

Sure I enjoyed myself a lot, but I missed my friends , brothers and sisters from this site, my bud Serge...

It was a great morning!
On that picture the bowie I picked at Denton last year from Ron Laclair (he scripted the handle ), the quiver I bought there too, and my Buffalo bow
