Silly boy didn't bring his own bow cause he wasn't planning on getting to shoot. All that Lance has told me about T's shooting is true with extra's. A smart man would let him shoot first then use his arrow in the kill ring for an aiming point. My hat's off to a fine archer.
On top of that I found him to be a warm, and engaging guy who's as modest and generous as they come.
If you all get a chance, hunt him down and shake his hand. He's tops. :thumbsup:

Now let me tell ya, Charlie is a clutch shooter for sure.....he sucked up and drilled every Dean T. (T standing for Tom Foolery on this post :D ) could dream up on the 2nd half of the course. I mean drilled em perfect. Cept for that Fred Bear shot and that was pure luck on my part.....or was it pure instinctive? I'll let you guys figure it out. :D
Anyhow, that was one fine crowd to shoot with on my very 1st 3-D shoot. I almost declined, but I'm glad I re-considered. Those events only come around once in a lifetime.
Thanks for inviting me along. Ya'll have no idea what it meant to have walked the course with ya.

You had to be there to get the "instinctive" comment.
And, I truely believe Spudly is a certified nut, and he's got :bigsmyl: papers to prove it.
Thanks Spudly for letting me bunk with ya, I really enjoyed the stories.
Can't seem to get Cloverdale out of my mind. Too much fun crammed into 2 days....I got sensory overload.

To paraphrase a quote used by Dean Torges, "shoot a few arrows and majic happens"!

Hey! Those aren't fur tracers... they're
"parachutes" ala Dean! :saywhat:

I emailed him his pics of the ATHA tent kids bowmaking session, and I haven't heard back from him.
How about it Spudley, you know if'n he's alright?

What could he say? Bud, you the only person I know that can leave Dean speechless.
Gives me an idea what we can do with "our" picture.

He e-mailed me a mouth-watering description of how well his garden is doing this year, all the vegetables he's harvesting, mentioned his 100 cornish hens, etc. I e-mailed him back and said, "Heck, I'll just move in with you." Haven't heard another word from him. Kinda strange. :rolleyes:

I think he thinks we're strange. :saywhat:

No rubbery boots for me. Those are all leather Buster Browns. Normally don't wear no shoes atall but Spudley is trying to civilize me. Says I embarrass him in public.

Enjoyed the frog video very much. Have to admit I winced, though, when you whupped that one in the water with your bow. (Winced for the bow, not the frog.)

Shoulda known they be leather boots, Tom. Frogs cain't smell. :)
What became of the frogs? I could tell your camerawoman didn't want anything to do with them.
Post by: Tom Mussatto on June 19, 2003, 12:09:00 PM
Not all of us. :saywhat:
Good shots don't have to whomp their frogs after the shot. Not to worry about the bow. It's a Big 5. Multiple duty piece of equipment. Shoot arrows, walking stick, frog whomper.......
"What became of the frogs? I could tell your camerawoman didn't want anything to do with them."
Had to clean'em myself. Had to cook'em myself. Had to eat'em myself. So much for the "me hunter, you squaw". What's this world coming to?
You guys need to come to ATHA hunt in October. Leave your pride and self-respect at home and bring lots of arrows and a big appetite. Rubber boots (hip waders) are optional.
Post by: Joey Ward on June 19, 2003, 12:29:00 PM
I blame my mother-in-law. :saywhat:
Lost pride years ago. Never had much self-respect. Thanks to Al, I got plenty of arrows. Always have a big appetite.
Waders would make it boring.

So you got to eat all those frog legs by yourself? I feel sorry for you. :help:

Nah...Wouldn't want to even try and talk Bob out of one of his own bows. I'm gonna have him make me one.

Charlie, am pleased to have finally made your acquaintance. Have been curious about you since I first saw that fine photo of you under a bare tree with a squirrel coming to earth. Figured it must have been trick photography, until I shot the course with you. :) That daggone Terry's a shooter, too, ain't he? Makes it look so effortless and relaxed.
Looking forward to next time.
Post by: Charlie Lamb on July 02, 2003, 10:10:00 PM
I've taken a lot of photos trying to capture "the moment" and that squirrel photo is one of only a few that worked. My buddy the cameraman was on his toes that day!
We'll have to assemble that group again one day! The most fun I've had in a while. Good shootin with ya.
:thumbsup:
