TO ALL FELLOW MEMBERS AND HUNTERS,
ONE ONE WEEK UNTIL OPENING OF BOW SEASON IN OHIO, ONE OF THE TIMES OF YEAR WE ALL PRACTICE FOR AND WAIT FOR LIKE CHILDREN AT CHRISTMAS. I WOULD LIKE TO BE THE FIRST TO WISH EVERYONE A SAFE AND SUCCESSFULL SEASON. DON' T FORGET THOSE SAFETY HARNESSES AND BE SURE OF YOUR SHOT. I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE TO THE WOODS WITH YOU NEXT SATURDAY. BUT, I TOO HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO OCT. 4, 2003 FOR SOME TIME. YOU SEE, I WILL BE IN TENN. ALONG WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS FOR A WEDDING. MYSELF AND MICHELLE WILL BE GETTING MARRIED THAT DAY AND WILL BE THERE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. THE FOLLOWING SAT. IS THE RECEPTION, AND WITH ALL THE PLANNING, RUNNING, PREPARING, AND NOT TO MENTIONED WE JUST MOVED INTO A NEW HOUSE, YOU CAN PROBABLY UNDERSTAND THE INABILITY TO GET OUT AND PRACTICE (ONLY SHOT 2 DAYS SINCE THE WORLD). BUT, I HAVE BIGGER FISH TO FRY RIGHT NOW AND THIS IS WHAT I AM THE MOST ANXIOUS ABOUT, WHEN ALL OF THIS IS DONE I WILL BE ABLE TO GO HUNTING AND RELAX. SO, ONCE AGAIN, SAFE AND HAPPY HUNTING--AND SUCCESS IS NO MEASURED BY HOW MANY POINTS IT HAS OR EVEN IF YOU BAG ONE OR NOT---ITS THE MEMORIES.
