Hello again my crazy Bow collector friends.
It's been a while as I took a much needed break and once again find myself in need of some tradgang medicine!
I would like my first post to be a happy reunion of sorts by showing pics of some of my my friends made thru Bear Collecting and archery...........Ofcoarse we need pics!
Please jump in here my friends and show us yours too!
I posted this once before but wanna show it again.
Here is Bowdoc and myself at Denton Hill about 1999. What a great time and Donnie is one of the nicest and funniest guys you will ever meet!

Me and the gang....1999 also.
The guy in the funny hat is the classicbowman, Rob Tiberio.

My dear friends.....Al Reader, Joe and Chris Natske. These guys ate like animals when I said dinner was on me! The beer bill alone was $125! And that was just for Joe!
Miss those days very much......I will digout some more later.

Look at the Bowdoc. He is Da Man! Even on vacation he finds himself working on a bow! Great day that was! My little nephew sits there watching and learning. Today my nephew Anthony is a Marine Corp veteran having served in Afghanistan!

Good to see you back Philip!
Blink your eyes a few times and the shoot season will be upon us. Whittingham, BBTC, Denton....can't wait!! Heck, the Putnam club is even doing another trad shoot in April.
I've been stretching a new string for an A riser and #1 limbs.....time to get some new arrows made up.
Don - hope to see you at Denton again....it's been way too long.
Shoot 'em if you got 'em!
:campfire: :archer2:

I've never made it out there but it certainly looks like you guy's know how to have a lot of fun. That would be one expensive trip as I would be doing a whole lot of shopping. Probably like being in Bear Archery/Collector heaven!!
Nice pics Philip

Yeah Doc , I think about it from time to time, if I do I am going to shoot and visit with old friends , heck with that booth stuff.
In all the years I went I have never shot the hill.
My days of sitting in a booth are pretty much over , life is to short, if I have time to use up I am spending it with friends and family ,enjoying life.
I would love to sit back , enjoy a free lunch and a good BS session with old friends.

Ted, please try and grab bowdoc and get on a plane if you could! Would be great fun once again.......Philip
