Great pic, what a beauty.
Bear looks good, too!

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Well done Mike, love it when a plan comes together   :clapper:
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

I've heard it said that Christianity is a crutch.  To me, it's a walking stick to use on the path of life.

WOW, what a pleasant surprise coming here to check in to what's happening in TG World.  

Thank you all for the compliments, and let the jealousy flow about the awesome beard (read that as nasty according to my wife).

I dropped the meat off at the processor Thursday to get ground up and made into Polish Sausage Hamburger patties, and then I dropped off the hide yesterday to get tanned.  I have time to figure out what I want done by the time it gets back from the tannery.  I'm also supposed to get a call tomorrow or Tuesday once the hide is thawed out and they can get the skull out and green scored.  I'll post the # when I get it.

I'm putting together the story for the Professional Bowhunters Society publication.  I received so much info from PBS members, that I see it fitting to share my experience in the PBS magazine.

We had to do our part to pay for all that construction by paying EXCESSIVE tolls, not to mention you just put on the steaks, and they needed to cook for a little bit.  HA
