I just turned 69 and began my 48th year of bowhunting. I've had to drop down in bow weight a little this fall, but had no trouble hanging 15 tree stands in Wisconsin and Iowa. Luckily I have a strong son (JJB) to help with the deer dragging! I try to stay active and just turned over 2,500 miles on my bicycle for this summer. I hope to be in the deer woods for many years to come!

While at a 3-D event I was fortunate to plug in to an electical outlet which provided the necessary power for that $7000 ventilater .
I was woke up by the sound of laugher and arguing at three in the morning . Peering out in faint light I could make out the last three elibrated campfire buddies discussing wether to or not to pull the plug . LOL

Cheers, still no Stanley .....

I think the work you're looking for is inebriated, but you could've just said they were drunk.

71 and still going out there. Just have to slow down a little. Setting treestands takes a little more time, but I'm in no hurry.

Hey highlow , you are correct the "work" I could have used is drunk . LOL

Cheers and still no Stanley ....

So while in the op room and conversing with the docter on where to take his Dad hunting the nurse slips on a mask over my mouth and nose . The discussion continued for a while . I think . LOL .
Cheers and still no Stanley ....

I usually proofread carefully. Missed that one. How'd the "procedure" go?

68 and lovin it more....consider that whitetail requires a lot of sitting we should be able to do it a long time. One problem is remembering where my stands are, remembering where I parked the truck and what day is it!!

Still going at 67 1/2, have grandkids that I have to teach. Lots of fun.

Good morning highlow , done ( room for a few puns here ) and now packing for my Elk trip .

Cheers from the Country that has everything except the Stanley Cup ...

I'm not wanting to wish time away but can't wait to have twenty more years of knowledge. You guys are an inspiration to all us young 40 yo's who "think" we're getting up there. Thanks for a great thread and keep on keeping on.

Great to see you old timers still hunting and enjoying life! Will be 73 in November. Been shooting a bow since age 10. Got first deer in 1963. Hunting more from ground, but still use the trees. Good luck this season guys!
