Glad you're back at it.....old man[:-][:-][8D]

Great to see you back on your feet John! After seeing what my dad went through with a similar surgery I'm amazed at your recovery. Granted you were a professional athlete and quite a few years younger, but it is still back surgery.

Get out there and smack a buck so I can throw some congrats your way.

Great to hear, John!!

I was just up a bit north of Alton, Ill., hunting wth Matt and jmbuckhunter this past Thursday, Friday and Saturday and from what we saw you should be hitting the woods at a darn-near perfect time!

Good to hear John! Be careful out there.

Stop flexing and go get a buck.

I know, can I time it or what?? I actually canceled my hotel reservations for the gun hunt (family property in far southern Illinois) thinking I wouldn't be able to make it, now everything is booked![:@]No biggie, I'll just pistol hunt the second gun season and concentrate on bow hunting.

Wait, you are a bull. The strength of one shouldn't come as a surprise. LOL Great news and take it slow, don't want to screw something up.

Congrats man, Just in time, the Illinois rut is looking pretty good now. I can't wait to get out and get me a deer this year, my venison supply is DANGEROUSLY LOW!!!
