Title: A great Sunday morning stumping
Post by: Frenchymanny on March 18, 2012, 03:52:00 PM
I decided yesterday to get out of the city and enjoy a day afield, stumping and scouting for turkeys.

How lucky was I with the weather, unreal for that time of the year!

I took a few pictures to share with you all

First, snow melting made the little creek run wild in the woods

And some more!
The old stumps, very wet were sooo soft today!
One of the last time I went stumping, the deep frozen stumps were breaking arras! Not today   :thumbsup:    :archer:

Going for that stump!

Sure I enjoyed myself a lot, but I missed my friends , brothers and sisters from this site, my bud Serge...

It was a great morning!
On that picture the bowie I picked at Denton last year from Ron Laclair (he scripted the handle ), the quiver I bought there too, and my Buffalo bow

If only there was a pig behind each stump! Maybe next year when you venture back down to Georgia.

Your weather looks so nice, like the spring in Minnesota when I was growing up.
Lots of people wish to be here (Georgia) in winter and spring, but I'm already starting to sweat and become uncomfortable without A/C (I have too much fat and hair for the south).

One day Manny, we will be hunting together in Quebec and I truly look forward to it.

First day of the year shooting in a t-shirt! You would love it. I have a hard time with heat too

I am so looking forward to visiting, hunting and shooting with you again!   :thumbsup:    :campfire:    :archer:
