I was there a few years back. Lots of bowhunting history there!
It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.

I was there a couple years back, will definitely go again. Glen Hinsey let me back into his office where he was going thru a donation from the Pope family, a bow, arrows and shooting gear that Saxton Pope had made for his nephew that appeared unused. It was found in the attic of a family home and sent to the museum. It was a great adventure!
