Looks like all you guys really had a great time. I'm sure Pat won't soon forget this birthday!

Was a blast . Lets try for a gathering sooner than next year.
Well, there's the Tn. Classic in May...not quite a year away! :)   

Pappy and a bunch of us hunt usually the last week in December at LBL (TVA's Land Between the Lakes) in Tennessee. The hunting is difficult due to lots of woods, acorns usually gone by then, and a short time to pattern deer...but the company and eating is always good! ;D

Got it shooting yet, Scott?  ::) 
Scott and Bob spent hours chasing rings and getting their staves in shape. Scott got his bow to floor tiller before he left but poor Bob found a fatal wind shake that only really showed itself after hours of hard work. Thats why I sent him home with 2 staves and a bow. He earned them and I didn't want him to go home frustrated.  ;)      Pat

Good seeing you again too, Scott. That chunk of osage was shaping up nicely by the end of the weekend- now we want to see pics of it propped up on a deer in a couple months.

Both them guys had some serious dedication. I was impressed

Not yet Pat. Priorities you know. :D

I would like nothing better than that Hillbilly. If I can get it finished up in time and some arrows that will shoot in it I will be carrying it to the woods with me. The season opens up in just a little over a month.

  Chris,I used to do it all the time when doing karate demo's.The last time I did it was 15 years ago and was real good at it,till the last one.That got me 5 stitches with a blunt tip.I think the water in my left hand was the reason I couldn't hang onto them this time. ;D

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

probably didn't help that you had your eyes closed!  ;D
Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

  I'm squinting :D Actually,about 10 or 15 feet away the arrow disappears.Even though you can see it coming almost all the way,you have to just reach for air when you hear,see it leave the bow.It is moving faster than it looks.That was early in the morning and I just wasn't in the mood to get hit with a blunt.We had stayed up till 3 a.m. the night before. :(

Well Eddie, as they say, "you much man" :)
 I tried to catch darts one night in the army. Lotsa holes...not my brightest moment.
