I am a blessed man!

 

The bows are a father son combo sent to me by David Kretschmar(huntrdfk). His boy outgrew the bow and now my Jake gets a turn until he does the same and we pass the set onto the next father-son/daughter combo. The arrows are from Danny Rowan and the quiver from the mighty Caribou hunter Donny Rowan(Nakohe). The armguard knife combo is from Kenny Yoder(4runr) and the belt knife and steel from Frank and Shell Skukanec (sticshooter and Shell). All of this will be in the woods this fall at one time or another, but mainly it serves to remind what a great group of people we have here and helps get me past a lot of the other stuff that happens online and in life.

Thank you my brothers and sister. I'll be sharing the woods this year with some of you in person but all of you in spirit!

Yeah, but being left handed does that mean I have to also shoot it upside down? Off my hand?

i'm still alive, the wife doesn't get home till 11pm tonight.  i am still trying to figure out a subtle way to tell her we need another kid.  

them sure is pretty bows. a few months of sleepless night and changing poopy diapers is worth getting to enjoy them fine looking bows.  might even eat some more of that gerbers green peas.... YUCK!!!
