Title: Said the heck with them and retired
Post by: Troy Breeding on April 01, 2011, 09:29:00 PM
I'm back folks...
I moved, retired, got fat again, and desided anything other than single stringing is for the birds.

Oh, I personally never driffed to the other side. Just did it with the shop.

I tried for four years to build a trad ring around the shop while in Missouri, but wasn't able to. Just to few with the real understanding of what archery is.

Troy,

When did you move from MO to OH?  It's good to see you posting again.  I miss the Southeastern Traditional shoot at Elberton, GA and seeing you there, too!  Or was it the shoot in AL where I saw you?

Moved to OH about a year ago.

Hunting sure is alot different here than it was in AL or MO.

Well, son of a gun, look what the dog drug in!

I've been asking folks high and low if they know what happened to you and no one knew a thing. I'm sure glad you've surfaced. Any plans to get back into business?

Now you don't have any good excuses for not dropping in and visiting us at Tannehill.

I am sure you will like retirement, I have been retired for 11 years, best move I ever made.

Good to know you're still kicking, I think I saw a Reality Sign on the ole Home-place the other day. With all your money you should buy it back for a winter home   :goldtooth:

Post by: Troy Breeding on April 02, 2011, 10:37:00 AM
Moved to OH when the better half got booted up the totum pole again.

Talked to Lynn Harrelson a few days ago and I'm thinking we might make a trip back down for one of the shoots.

Have no wants to go back into business.

With the way things are now I can hunt or fish when I feel like it.

Danny,
The only way I could afford to move again would be to sell the two houses I currently own.

Welcome back Troy. I enjoyed the birch shafts I had gotten from you years ago. I actually still have some left. Im the guy who had sent you a quart of Grahms Ceramathane poly to test on your arrows.

Moved to a quick blink called Quincy. West Central OH.

Hopefully, I can get all my ducks in a row and make afew of the tournaments this year. Been checking the Trad. Bowhunter and found two in OH.

May even venture over to IN for the Cloverdale shoot.

If the better half can stay at home long enough we may even make a run back south one one.

Welcome back from another West Central Ohio inhabitant.  OSTA hosts some trad shoots around the state.  There's one outside of Xenia in June which isn't too far from you.
