JESSE "HALF CHEROKEE" RUSH
The rabbit lost his tail cause the fox tricked him and told him to stick it thru the ice to catch fish he became stuck and the bear snatched him out by his ears leaving his bushy tail behind and streching his long ears... Cherokee story "how the rabbit lost his tail" :)

Good work Brycey boy!!
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

THAT is a story we need to hear (when you get done with all the follow up work). Wow, Bryce, couldn't be any better than that.

When I saw graphic photos added, I thought there was going to be a broken bow at the end of this thread. Glad I thought wrong. Congratulations!

Thanks guys :) the arrow went through both lungs and the point was stuck in the rib on the other side and snapped.
When I realized I had 5 days left in the season I knew I had to put my nose to the dirt. We don't buy meet in my house, so I was feeling the stress of an empty freezer. I still have a deer tag to fill and only 2 days off to fill it so we'll see if this bow has the stuff to fill the freezer :)
Thanks again I'll get you guys the whole story as soon as I get some sleep. Had to quarter and haul back a mile (6 trips) back to my truck.
Thanks for the kind words. :)
