We decided to take some of the curve out of Will's recurve,it worked out nice and much easier to handle. :)

Sure was a great weekend round the farm! I'll get that bow braced up next weekend and we'll try out my "final tiller fingers" and see how it works.  ::)

Glad your Thanksgiving went well. Ours did also. Thats a fine doe you got! And everyone sure looks busy with making bows and knives!! Oh Man, Anthony's knees are healing up real well, tho you can still see some swelling. He's slower than Christmas now.....OH WAIT!!!! Christmas is right around the corner!!! heehee!!! ;D  I was tickled to see the most recent issue of PA !!! Folks have been teasing ME, about being famous now!!! haha!!! Plus I took alot of the pics in the article, Terry sent them to Tony. I felt really proud to be amongst some of those fine folks in the article!!!   :)  That was alot of fun, and I'm already looking forward to attending it in Feb again!!!

Thanks Will,Bear,Tomi. Yes Big A seems to be doing great,already taliking about hunting in late Dec.Bev ant so sure about that. ;) ;D ;D It was a lot of fun and we plan on attending it again if all goes good.  :) Got the doe boned out and the hide fleshed last evening.I think I have enough to keep me busy Brain tanning this winter now. :) Any way the freezer is full of hides at the cabin and full of meat at the house so I would call that a successful season. :) Not over yet but it sure gets tougher as the season wears on,cover down and deer spooky from being shot at and pushed around from surrounding farms. :) :)

Congratulations on the doe, Pappy. I haven't had a shot all season, yet. I'm glad Chris loaded the coolers on our trip now. :)

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