Lee, ahmm that aint no beaver! You northern boys don't know a squirrel when you see one    lol  

[Lee Slikkers]

LOL, wondered what a beaver was doing so high up in a tree    

[bolong]

Great job on your range John, love the "spooky deer " and "grinning boar". Looking forward to getting together with you guys. Shane
Oh, and great idea on the blank bale.

Shane and Kirk let me know when's a good time and i'll try and get it set up.  Look like we may have a few more to join us Rustsy and Jeremy if possible, also a good friend of mine from Hurley Warren Duncan came over last Saturday and seen the range and wanted to know when I was shooting again? I told him that evening and he was welcome and I had an extra bow he could shoot.  He made the trip again that evening and had so much fun he left talking to himself "How can I convince my wife I need a longbow?" He had never shot traditional before! TRAD gets in you!

Great looking target range!  I really like the idea of using carpet on your "animals".  I especially liked the deer target with the antlers and skull.  I hope he wasn't tied up there when he was alive....hee, hee.

I need to know who the artist was on all these?  He needs to find another job!

Hey guys thanks!

Yeah Daniel I thought you might like to see another option that's out there if you don't mine putting some sweat equity into it.

Not hard at all and like I said the target have held up good.

Although I need to redo a few of the cutouts and maybe rearrange the course now after 5.5 years.

That is the most judicious use of 1.5 acres I've ever seen. I'd shoot it. Looks like a hoot.

[South MS Bowhunter]

I had a few shoots here at the house and at the time the two 15 target courses gave an option for 2 different groups to shoot safely.

Very cool
