Me, what do I do.  Well I watch the kids while she goes hunting.  Then the phone rings, I load the kids up drive out to the farm and then load up Mindy's deer.  Thats what I do for my wife.  However, Pete you win  the best husband award. I would have sent Mindy to get her own arrow.

We were realy on our best behaviour like the true gentlemen we are.. It takes some real love and devotion to go thru that swamp just to find "Pats" lost arrow.
 And after our valiant efforts, knee deep in frogs and things that rub against your legs from the deep, she was upset we came back empty handed!!
Next time she can look for her own arrow..

Pete,

Who shot Pat's arrow out in the swamp, because she NEVER misses.  Something tells me you launched that arrow.  LOL!!!  Inquiring minds want to know!

Pete,
If it happens regularly you might wanna invest in a string tracker, those lost arrows can get mighty expensive, and by the looks of the shoes you may need the money for some new ones   :biglaugh:

BINGO!! We have a winner! Brian you hit the nail on the head.The pictures don't tell the whole story, but I will. Pete actually launched the arrow,and decided he had to go find it after some encouraging words from the group.You know me too well Brian I never miss,but if you are ever back in that area you may keep an eye out for a very nice orange and white fletched one that decided it wanted to become part of the local landscape.I didn't miss I just hit something I didn't know I was aiming at,and Alzheimers kicked in and I forgot what it was.   :biglaugh:

MarthaK isn't my wife she's just a friend and I waded through 10 yards of blackberry brambles in shorts to find an arrow when she shot over a jackalope target on the ATAR fun course.Chivilary isn't dead.

Ya'll must not have snakes in that swamp. There is no amount of money that would motivate me to look for an arrow in shorts and tennis shoes in the swamps down here in MS.

Well I guess it is time to say that I was the one that shot the arrow. I was sitting on a hill in the grass and wanted to shoot the Sheepeater sitting down again buit ran out of arrows so I borrowed one from Pats pocket quiver. It is about a hundred grains lighter and I shot over the target. But it is her arrow I was looking for. But not realy by my choice.

The pictures don't really even come close to telling the whole story from the ice cold water to the terrible smell and let me tell you it was one of the funniest things I had ever seen except when the three of them tried to set up a tent pics to follow Delin
