After the second shot I got a text from Don

The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

Yep, Mike - sounds (looks) like the little lady scattered dead hogs all over the terrain, like a platoon of Marine infantry had "snooped & pooped" through there - LOL

Have you guys eaten any of those hogs yet?

We ate the front shoulders off the pink one last Thursday. They were delicious. I'll have to send you the recipe.

Well, time is scooting right along (even though Spring seems to have "scooted" right out of reach again this week), and we are now only about three weeks out from The St. Jude Turkey Hunt, here in NC.

I was talking to Don Batten, the originator/donar of the hunt, last night. The extra winner's "swag", donated by enthused, supportive TG members, is piling up nicely in the "bat cave", for our young winner. I now have completed the personalized Wing Bone Turkey Call that I promised the winner, and the Molygabet (Sp.?) self bow I made, of course, has been ready and waiting to feel the grip of her new owner. I will hand deliver those items on that special weekend of 19,20, & 21 April

Speaking of the winner, and the bow's new owner - Don sent me a picture he got from her Dad, Michael Langehans, last night. I thought y'all might like to see one other thing our young hunt winner, "Miss Algebra", also excells at, when she isn't busy getting high grades in shool, and/or outdoors with her father and brother - slaying pigs, turkeys, & other critters foolish enough to challenge her hunting skill   :)   .

Mills (Langehans) (on right) and a fellow team-mate displaying awards, and huge smiles, that they won in a recent gymnastics competition meet:

 

You go, girl! Eagerly awaiting to shake your hand in April.

Sounds like a problem that gets us all, Curt. Where does the time always go ...   :dunno:
