Title: Ole Spot, lol..
Post by: Pat B. on May 12, 2013, 10:18:00 PM
Not too old ....

After an event filled Mothers Day I was able to get away for a short walk.. I had walked about a mile down a right of way through the river bottom when I saw a few pigs.. Seems like I've seen this movie before .

Anyway, as I was closing the distance I was building that focus on the sweet spot.. Also was enjoying that feeling, my heart thumping in my chest letting me know I was ALIVE. I think I could have gotten closer but I knew I was good to go so I drew the bow while REALLY focusing on that spot immediatly behind her shoulder. As I touched anchor the shot was away. I watched the arrow disappear in the exact spot I was concentrating on. The little sow crow hopped about 20 or 30 feet and fell over !! I don't know the exact distance but my guess is she was between 25 and 30 yards.
I had my favorite Hill bow, a 68" Wesley that's around 60lbs at my draw.. It feels as smooth as silk and is nearly silent.. Was using a Gold Tip from Big Jim's and an Eskimo with a 100 grain steel adapter..  Way cool, I am truly blessed !

Pat I think you should look at it as another part of your already self described "event filled Mother's day".

I bet if you had looked around a little you might have found some wildflowers to stick on it so it could have passed as yet another "wonderful" Mother's Day gift to your sweetheart.

Congratulations!

God bless,Mudd
