Some Winter Fun at Mikey's
« on: January 20, 2013, 07:24:00 PM »
I've known Mikey "mcgroundstalker" for years, but this is the first time I've been able to make it to his place upstate after being invited for years now. It's beautiful!

 I originally met Mikey at Muzzy, but really got to know and appreciate him from the JLM bunny hunts at Shawn's.

Mikey's gorgeous cabin...

Thanx to Mikey for opening up his country home to all of us. For those that haven't had the privilege, Mikey is a fine a fella as you'll ever meet.

 I met some  real fine fellas that were all good shots, ate like a king, and shot a bunch of arrows....just about a perfect day!

Thank you so much little brother   :notworthy:  

I hope next time Cade can make it    :campfire:

I'm sorry that I missed it.  I shot up there two years ago.  Mikey's got an awesome set up!  I'm sure that it was a great time as usual1, and I'm sure the food was as good as the shooting!

Good stuff. I remember the 1st time I met Mikey at the Bunny Hunt  and he  told me to check out Whittingham. It was when I 1st got back into bowhunting and he has become the face of trad archery to me. Sorry I missed you again fellas but I should be all moved in and back to normal in a month and will be out and about again.

I love going to this shoot.  Would have loved to be there.  Thew vehicle situation prevented me from making the trip.

Thank you Mike for opening up your paradise to us.

As usual, looks like everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Man, that makes a guy want to drive to NY just to shoot arrows! Looks like you guys had a blast. We used to do stuff like that but times change I guess. Enjoy.
