Thank you guys. I don't care how down or blue you are tradgangers are the best support group there is. I love each and every one of my bow brothers and sisters. I would love to hear stories of your fathers or mentors that got you started with the bow

Sorry for your loss. Great story it made me think back to all the good times in the woods with my dad. Hel lives in Arkansas and I live in VA. So we don't get to hunt together much any more. Just once a year.

"sittin under this oak tree thinking about that day and how proud of me he was"

...how proud he was?

Have no fear..he still IS!!!  

Very nice tribute to your father. Thanks for sharing your story. Very sorry for your loss.

that was a very touching story stick-um.sorry for your loss.my prayers are with you and your family

At my stepdad's service, the minister said there is never a good time to bury a loved one. 40 or 140, it hurts. Bet your dad was mighty proud of you. God Bless you and your family with His healing touch.

I too am sorry for your loss.

I was blessed in so many ways by the telling of your story.

Thank you so very much for sharing, the baring of your soul touches my heart.

I pray God will wraps His loving arms around you and your family and grant you all His peace that surpasses all understanding.

God bless,Mudd
