They were at Hawkeye Bowman in western NY.

Great thread but I do not do pics. but I am in one of Stone Knifes. Shawn
This is a pic of my archery club`s winter shoot with a great group of friends.. Wild game dishes, novelty shoots, a big bon fire with live music, & general fun. It`s a great way to break up the winter. I`m the big ape on the far right.

Shawn because of your bunny hunt I met most of the people that i shoot with. Thanks Here's another pic with Shawn in it. (http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/420W/JLMBH07106groupbunny.jpg)
Hey, I'm in the pic too, the Bunny Hunt is such a great way to meet and become friends with Trad Gangers.......geez, there's eight dead bunnies in that picture, how good is that?

Great thread Jim.
Shawn at the muzzy. A huge part in my beginning with trad.

Damon at the muzzy...also helped get me hooked on trad.
(http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w29/ishiwannabe/100_0528.jpg)
Mikey at the muzzy...has helped me out in so many ways, although I have yet to hunt with him.

And then there is this kid....who impresses us all with each new adventure.

I know Im new to trad, relatively speaking. Since my journey began a little more than a year ago, I have met and shot with some of the most generous and genuinely good hearted people I have ever met. I look forward to many more years of friendships to come.

What's the story with the Bison Walt?
Rob,
First, can you send me a full sized copy (not resized) of that Texas Sweat picture you posted?
I only got four deer and didn't get an elk this year so I went over to Doug's on Sunday and got some more meat to make it through the year. I wanted to see for myself how well my 57# selfbow, Max, preformed on a large animal. Max is still mad that I turned down that raghorn at fifteen yards late in the elk season, so I thought this might placated him some.
It's actually the one of the pictures Gary posted in the 'Sweat Updates' thread back in March. You should be able to copy it from here & save it into 'My Pictures' on your PC. If you get in touch with Pop, I'm sure he'll have an original, unadulterated version. :D I just 'borrowed' it!
Rob, what the heck was Ironbull doing with those rubber gloves on behind you :scared:

Great thread, folks. I don't believe I have any pics that I haven't already posted here on tradgang, after the shoots they were taken at. Great to see old friends and ones I haven't met yet but know from their posts.
I'm in a couple of DW's post.(I'm the one with the ALABAMA cap on)That was a good shoot at Pappy's place.
Every year I have a pre season wild game cook-out at my place. We shoot off the deck at targets in the woods below, eat like pigs and swap lies. I have known these guys for years. Joe Bogle on the right taught me to make bows, Dan Copeland in the middle has shot with me since 89 and Ralph "Biff" Moore and I shoot all major tournaments in and around Bama together.
