Great story Roger...   :readit:

You've come far Pilgrim..   :archer:
We live in the present, we dream of the future, but we learn eternal truths from the past
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
Life is like a wet sponge, you gotta squeeze it until you get every drop it has to offer

Rick Butler

"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. To front only the essential facts of life and see if I could not learn what it had to teach and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived"- Thoreau

That was an amazing story. An I will agree with you that the Kodiak/ super kodiak has the BEST grip of any bow I have ever shot.

I was in a slump as of late so I switched to the Kodiak , and click, the game is on again.  

Thank you for the story
