Title: Bowfishing with a great family
Post by: Larry Surtees on July 13, 2011, 01:06:00 AM
Don, Tammy, Skyler, Chloe Beth Wilson and a friend of Skyler's, Zach, came for a visit to Pensacola.  I sure enjoyed their stay with me.  We were able to get out one night to bow fish.

Skyler is one heck of a good shot.  He was nailing the fish.  

Here are a few pictures that summarize the evening.

Larry,

I'm not sure how many we took that night -- kinda lost count.  Before heading back in, we went out to the Escambia Bay pass that leads to the gulf and they were all over the place.

Jeff, yes the whole Wilson clan came down and spent a week.  We tried to make it pretty much non-stop the entire time they were here -- and we did that pretty much.

Skyler it was sure nice meeting you and your whole family. Looking at those pictures makes me sorry I had to miss that trip. That four letter word w-o-r-k sure does get in the way sometimes. Looks like it was a fun trip.

Congrats guys.  Those pics look like great fun.  Wish i could have been there.  

I spent 4 days with the Wilson Crew and i will not soon forget a single minute.  One of the best four days i have ever had.

Larry is a pretty cool cat to spend time with also.  I spent one of the most memorable New Years Eves with Larry this past year.

Looks like you had a great time.

I hate to ask, but I have some stingray skins and it has the tough hard little beads on it...but yet when I look at stingrays they always look like they have smooth skin like a shark.

Hey guys I just got back to Kentucky from a week long trip to Pensacola and I had the pleasure to go shoot with Larry and some of his friends at the local range and to go bow fishing with Larry. I'm absolutely worn out from all the traveling but will give more details later. Just had a great time with some great people that made me feel at home away from home.

I'll give a better report tomorrow.
