Happy birthday Dave2old!!!

[elk ninja]

Just wanted to wish David Peterson a happy birthday today.  Hope your day is filled with Dinkel, cheap cigars, turkey gobbles and close encounters of the wild kind.

This gear is on the way tomorrow Dave, although I can't call it a birthday present...

Dave, Happy Birthday Bro! My wife has the same birthday. Just got back from a morning turkey hunt, had a cagey Tom gobble quite a bit. How has your turkey season been going? T

Happy Birthday Dave! Just about to finish the last of the 3 or your books my daughter bought me for Christmas. Thank you for sharing your writing with us and again, Happy Birthday! Mike

Dave,

Happy Birthday My Friend. Remember, bowhunters are like a fine wine. With age comes taste, flavor, distinction and character.

Tonight while sitting on my deck, I shall sip a fine Bourbon and light a spicy Cuban in your honor.

Thank you, indulgent friends! Yesterday, to celebrate 62 years, and under the guise of turkey hunting (in fact, I haven't heard a gobble in two weeks here, but if I have a season and a tag, I'll be out there), I took a solo adventure hike around the backside of the local mountain, up the creek valley, straight uphill to the highest point, then down through rocky scree and up again into Pond Spring bowl and back to the cabin ... a distance, elevation gain and pace that I perhaps kid myself would wilt the average guy half my age into his Birkenstocks or pointy-toed boots. I was marginally crippled myself, but not for long, as I got back just in time for happy hour. That's what a lifetime of true hard hunting will do for you, using the 'quads' God gave us. Yes, and only the best women, booze and cigars! Thanks again, young fellers. Dave

[B.O.D.]

Dave, I'll lift a bottle tonite and smoke a montechristo #3 in your honour my friend!

I always use the quads God gave me man, and I'll outclimb, outhike, and out- anything anybody I know that is half my age too brother!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!! Heart felt thanks to the man who made me and many others take a hard look at how and why we hunt,and opened my eyes to Abbey, Shepard and Leopold. I just wish I'd found your work sooner Dave. I'd say tip one for me but the way this thread is going you may very well suffer from alcohol poisoning if you tipped one for everybody.

Thanks Dave,
Brian

Happy Birthday Dave!  Thank you for the advice and words of wisdom.  I enjoyed a sip or three in your honor my friend.

[Chad Sivertsen]

Belated Happy Birthday Dave. We will toast to your honor this evening. No fancy cigars or spirits here just my wife's homemade choke cherry liquor and venison with fresh morels.

The mountain across the road from my house says it can kick your butt.

Happy Trails,
Chad

I don't know, rumor has it Dave can not be trusted with sharp, pointy things!
