You aren't offensive- you just didn't have the chance to know my amazing husband Donald a/k/a/ Nakohe- he passed away on 10.11.12  he is a Twin to Danny- and he was a avid traditional hunter, lover of God and lover of Life.  He loved this forum and all it represented- the people here that he met both in person and just online made a huge impact on him.  I know he is looking down on us, watching over us and guiding us.

be well,

Kimber Rowan

I still can't believe how smooth that bow felt to me, even though it is 60# at my draw length!!!!

Ok.... Here's a tease for later on.

Woods is busy doing math.

 
The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

Speaking of stories to tell, while you guys are continuing to spin your tales, I'll tell one having nothing to do with Solana, but that I was reminded of by Carlton's shoot.

A couple of years ago Terry Green, Larry Surtees and I were at Muddy Marsh in MD hunting sika, along with a couple of other groups.  One of the other groups was two young men shooting wheel bows.  One afternoon before going back out a bunch of us were practicing/goofing off outside the farmhouse, including the two compound shooters.  They put a water bottle - 20 oz size - out in the field about 40 yards - the targets in the yard were too close for them - and proceeded to not hit the bottle - close but no wounds in the plastic.  Terry walked up, nocked an arrow and put a hole clean through the bottle, walked out, picked up his arrow, walked back past the compound shooters and back toward where the rest of us were.  As he passed me he said "Only a fool would take a second shot after that."  The compound shooters were so disheartened that they gave up on the bottle.
Don't meddle in the affairs of dragons; people are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

2nd night at solana.

When we got back everyone was jealous well not my dad and Mr.Terry had killed a hog.

When we went to breakfast we had another delicious meal.

when we went to our evening hunts I was the first one to be dropped off.

About an hour later a group of deer came in 2 button bucks and 3 does I saw one dominant doe and when one of the button bucks came and was eating next to her it spook it off and then a hole bunch came along.

I said okay i'm going to shoot the biggest doe but then some squealing came along and scared away the deer.

Then about thirty minutes later some hogs came in and there was one that I wanted to bust so bad even tough he wasn't the biggest one but ohh.

He was Clemson tiger color. but then the biggest hog scared it off so then daylight was fading there was the second biggest hog in range so I decided to take him out shot at him but it was one of those moments where as soon as the string hits the point wham you let er rip.

Here's the thing about the shot and not heeding Mr.Don's warning I shot bad into the back part of the pig.

When the other pigs had left and I got picked up I Said it wasn't good but lets look for it then I had to go back to the tree to grab something coming back to the others I saw my arrow out on the ground and it was bloody.Then i said here's the arrow and when my dad saw it we let the dogs out then about a hundred yards away there he was shot in the back piercing the artery that my dad will saw what it is and I said it was a lucky shot then I was taught something you guys will take luck over skill any day.

That's it for tonight.   :bigsmyl:    :archer:    :coffee:

I won't take luck over skill any day but it sure is nice to get lucky once in a while when you make a boo-boo!

Congrats again Woods!

I am right there with you Bisch.  Skill and hard work are much more likely to pay off, but we all need a bit of luck every now and again.
But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. Psalms 3:3
