more arrows in flight
« on: March 22, 2009, 11:26:13 pm »
I finally got dry dirt, nice weather and my photographer all together and did a bit of shooting. That was the easy part, had a really hard time getting 12 megapixel photos to down size, finally got the idea to take photos of photos with my regular camera and did them that way. Any help to down size the better pics would be appreciated. Hope you enjoy.     Kenneth

I watched Cat Balue (sp) the other night and the first pic reminded me of Lee Marvin(Kid Shaleen) on his horse.
   Cool pics the one full draw at a gallop is very cool. Must have been the photographer! ;D

Thanks Mike, Pat, and Greg. Yes he is a very nice horse and tons of fun to ride. We raised him from a baby and he is eight years old now and very well trained. Could definatly pack elk but probably thinks that is above his pay grade. he is a medicine hat paint and has always been happy to be a mounted archer horse. Would love to make it to the mounted horse archery festival but you know they would put it on in Sept. right in the middle of the elk season. The bow pulls 45# and is plenty for learning this sport.     Kenneth

Yep I got Married in Sept. 20 years ago but told my wife then and there  not to expect a big celebration each year unless it was on the mountain. My weekends in September are not negotiable.     Kenneth

Really like the horse and the pictures!  Great to be able to shoot off him, especially when he is moving!  Horses are a big part of my life.  Nothing like hunting and horses! Joe

Thanks Hunter Trapper and Joe. Yes horses are an important part of our lives and our past also. I have used them lots for exploring and scouting new hunting areas, packing camp gear and game. Nice to be able to hunt a wilderness area and know you can get an animal back to civilization if you should happen to score.    Kenneth

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

Yep those good friends that you can count on are the ones you want to be up there with. I think there are lots of them on this board that could be put in this catagory. Pat is the only one I have had the privilage but so far I have not been dissapointed.    kenneth
