I don' t know why cardeer' s story is so hard to believe....

One year I fell out of the stand and landed on the bow - arrow went through my hand, so I cut it off and put it out for bear bait. All the while my poor dad was trying to gut his deer in the next 40 when two punks tried to steal his deer. My dad is also 98 years old and has been a golden glove boxer most of his life. He beat the living daylights out of these punks. Then tossed the average 13 pt. he just shot over his shoulders and walked a mile in the snow up hill, with no boots on!!!!

Actually. That didn' t happen. Sorry cardeer, had to poke a little humor in there. I think it' s a shame your bow busted and hope to see the pics of that buck.
