Title: Possibles Bag
Post by: 4runr on January 08, 2007, 12:10:00 PM
My daughter, Emma, loves to braid so I had her help me with my latest leather project. She braided most of the strap, and assisted with the lanyard for the antler "keeper".

Very nice Jerry. I checked out your website. You've got some cool stuff on there. I really like the Plains quiver with the sheath, very well done.

Mine's made from an old flour sack, lined and dyed a dark brown.

I've always liked a shoulder bag/possibles bag and I've got several of them.

I carry all kinds of stuff in them, keeps my pockets from buldging.    :archer:

Kenny, Emma's a talanted young lady.    :clapper:

Hey guys, Emma says thanks for all the nice comments.

Ron, when I showed Emma your post, she recognized you as the guy on the video who shoots a bow with his foot. That's a cool way to be remembered. I let her know how much you contribute to our traditional heritage, and when I got done explaining to her how important you were, and how much it means to me for you to post on our thread, she said," Oh so he's like the Dad of traditional bow hunting?" I smiled and said "Yep that's him".

Very nice 4runr.  You are blessed for sure.

I would at least consider Ron LaClair an Uncle for traditional archery 8^), if not a Daddy.

Ron is the kind of feller' you want want your kids and grandkids to emulate.  Soft spoken, honorable, a giver and a credit to our sport..and as a bonus, looks like a real mountain man.

"Ron is the kind of feller' you want want your kids and grandkids to emulate. Soft spoken, honorable, a giver and a credit to our sport..and as a bonus, looks like a real mountain man."

George wasn't the famous quote something like speak softly and carry a BIG stick? Well Ron carries a LITTLE Super Shrew and speaks L.....  oh, wait, my parents told me to be quiet if I wanted to be a smart xxx.   ;)  

Emma is very talented and her dad is lucky to have something treasured to wear made with her help. Also, I think Emma needs to put things in proper perspective.....Ron is like the GRANDFATHER of traditional archery.    :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:   (my parents always said I was a poor listener)

Roger, quit Hijacking Emma's thread!   ;)  

Emma, you keep up the awsome work helping your dad. I've got two daughters that are 7 and 5 years old and they like to shoot their bows, but haven't learned to craft things like you.

( Perhaps he'll explain to you what "going to the woodshed" means. Roger may be a little sore to type for a few days.   :D   )
