Never thought it would happen...a St. Judes Gem
« on: April 29, 2013, 09:40:00 PM »
After much thought and realizing I can only shoot one bow at a time I have decided to donate "Tbone" my Mohawk longbow for the Kids.
  I have donated a few hunts along the way but our public land pig hunting is not what it once was and the River has no schedule and can change a hunt from good to bad in just a couple of days. So donating a hunt was decided against. Plus my Grandson is 7 now and I will use a lot of my vacation time from work doing " Kid stuff ". I can dig it!
  So you will know how the name Tbone came about...
 I have always used multible bows to hunt with in a season. sometimes in a week. Chris Spikes and Lance Coleman bet me a TBone steak I could not hunt with one bow for a whole deer season. They lost. Should give you an idea of how good it shoots. God bless and bid high. Its trained.RC

Great gesture, Robert.  I know how well you shoot that bow and how much you like it.

This is a rare opportunity to own something that was used by a killing machine. If I was stranded with no hope of outside help, and I could pick a handful of hunters to be with. Robert would be one of my picks. Even though that I have not met him in person, I know that we would eat good meat with him around.

Wow RC....Another unbelievable donation!

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

Robert,
I remember reading the thread that led to the naming of T-bone. I know you think highly of that bow and can only imagine how much it means to you. What you are offering is more than a bow. I don't believe any body is going to offer anything more prized. God Bless you!
God Bless
