;D ;D ;D Love the pic of Jdub lovin on that decoy.  ;D ;D ;D freakin funny, dp

John, you forgot the third reason you didn't get a bird....you missed in on the first day you were there.  :o

again, "Another Shot in the Dirt" by John Bybee. Soon to be at a book store near you.  ;D ;D ;D
Did you have to bring that up again? Lol

My theory, Mr. Bybee, is that our bowtarist friend has a "dirty" mind. 

One thing about our Iowabow, he has never failed to recover a Black Hills turkey that he has put an arrow into.   >:D  We laugh, we tease, but iowabow and I feel the same about the whole thing.  It is about the opportunity, it's about getting out there, time spend on the ground....even if it is sitting on a hillside thinking of how we can snap funny picture with the upper jaws of a deer for a prop. 

As for the photo of me lovin' on the decoy, we were just trying to make the gobblers jealous!  Turns out they could not stand up to competition such as me! They all folded their fans and went home.  Sorry John, I guess I am just too much of a strutter.

Truth be told never thought we would get close enough to take a shot.  This was a great trip and hope to do it again someday. JW did a great job calling and brought in a number of birds. If we were gun hunting we would have taken a bird but for me that is just to easy
I think the bowgnome should join us next time.

IS THAT AN INVITE!!! Sounds great to me! Make sure you give me some time to talk the wife into it and I'll be there. That is unless I come to hunt in Iowa...then I won't be able to do two trips to hunt.  ;)

Bowgnome....I like that, may have to change my handle.  ;D bowgnome...hehehe that's a gooder!

Looks like you guys had a great trip!

I've never met Mrs Bowgnome, but she is more than welcome to come.  As for the ambulatory yard ornament, I have made no such offers.    ;)

I have been posting a couple pictures of this up coming art show so here is a picture of another work. I created the pieces about 6 months ago but just now figured out how to display the work. The shafts are nocked at both ends and crested at both ends it is kinda like an inward identity concept.

Work is continuing in many areas here in Iowa. Yesterday we had people out to participate in an experimental electric conversion  to a propane gas fired raku kiln. This is a way to get a little more life out of an old worn out electric kiln.
