Fun at the Toelke's
« on: August 21, 2012, 02:55:00 PM »
I got another one hooked on the stick bow. After shooting for a year I took  Mike up to see the master and get a few lessons from Dan. If Dan can't get you shooting well no one can!
  We laughed and goofed a bit, shot a few arrows at the "I wonder how far that target is?" distances and then Mike had some instructions.

Nice pics Kent.
Neat to see the shop a bit.

I just clicked on your link for the shop and it doesn't seem to be working.
...just letting you know.
I was thinking of getting a hat for my buddy's b-day coming up...

Is that a big hole through that Caribou target? It was brand new when I was there 2 years ago this month, what the heck happened? I know I did'nt hurt it very much in that spot where the hole is.
