I didn't get to shoot it.  I held on to it for a month and hauled it from Tennessee to Michigan.  Don't hardly seem fair.  Looks like everyone else got to try it out.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

It was open for the taking, you must have been too busy hunting reptiles

Paul may have been bit leery 'bout that lengthy draw of yours, Clint.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Real beauty you got there Pauly, the profiles unbraced braced and drawn speeking for themselves. And the skin - wish I could get my hands on such things ...

Congrats Paul!

It was self defense Paul.

Technically, ...I believe the creature alleged to have been taken in the hunt alleged to have happened was an amphibian.  Unless there was a gator in the Marshall Castle Moat!!!

I'm not really sure how I missed seeing this bow at Marshall.  :'(

But it looks like a sweet bow pappy!
Congrats to you Paul! That will go good with the new arrows that your getting for your birthday!
