Barry, what an adventure.  Glad to see you made it and are on the mend.  Take care of yourself.  BTW, just got my copy of Essential Encounters, awesome job!!!!  Thank you to all of you involved.  Will this hog hunt lead to "Non-Essential Encounters"???

Heal fast UB we need more stories like these LOL. Glad your ok sounds like you need some R+R. TD.

GREAT STORY....LIKE THE WAY U FINISHED HER OFF....GET WELL...

That is a sick story as the kids say...amazing.

Amazing Grace, too, that last one didn't put the coup de grace on you lying there... better a bow than one of the "bro" take the lickin!

You guys are a wee bit on the onery tough side to be pulling tree stands and humpin junk with a broken arm! Gads, dude!

I wanna be like you when I grow up! Course, at 62+, ain't much chance of me toughin up that much afore I die!

Congrats on coming through more or less intact and best wishes and prayers for a speedy recovery and no complications!

Thanks for the story Barry.  I hope you have a very quick recovery.  

BOB

Wow...nuff said.  Hope you heal quick.  

Jeff

PS  An event like that has to be told.  I hope you publish it in an extended version.

Heal quick my friend. Great story telling.

Awesome hunt Barry. I wish you a speedy recovery also.

Yall gonna make sausage or pulled pork with them pigs?

Now that is a story worth being told over and over... and over.

Glad you're injuries aren't worse and that after the dust settled... you were composed enough to "Git 'er dun".

Get well soon Barry.

I've got a feeling he's already up by 50-1  

Gotta remember that one- " if you aren't bleeding- you aren't needing" , gotta love Gene!
It's probably time to move treestands in Iowa right Gene?

Thanks to all for makeing my hunt a total BLAST. Had a ton of fun and really meet some great people. John

WOW! What an exciting ending to 5 weeks of hunting.  

Glad your ok U.B.
Mend up right quick like, we got bears to chase this spring!!
Bill

Would have made a great video for sure!  :D  

I`m glad you didn`t disturb any of the iron in your arm...THAT would have been bad.

How`s the Tall Tines?  :(

Wow! Tough old dude (the hunter)    Great story! Hope the wing heals before bear time. Maybe it will get you out of pulling more deer stands at least!

Wow!  Anyone know how the bow came out after all this?

Wow! What a story!!! I'm sorry you got so banged up, but glad it turned out OK. Take care and heal well.

Ahh, Barry's not so tough!  Next time he needs to have Marty along as backup:^) Marty would have grabbed the porker by the back feet and squeezed the squeal out of him . . . take a look at Essential Encounters if you have any doubts, HA!
