J-bow

Just curious......some of you people have some odd user names! I just wondered if anyone was willing to share what his/her board name meant or how they came by it. Mine was originally given to me by a fishing friend who calls me Johnny Rainbow, since I'm just as passionate about Steelhead/Rainbow Trout fishing as I am about Bowhunting Whitetails. I just shortened it to J-Bow. Now I can use it to cover both of my favorite outdoor pursuits.

Just Wondering!
John

Dodger

My brother started calling me Dodger when we were kids. Comes from my initials DWA,Jr.

Arthur P

I used several handles in the past. Started out as LittleJohn on bowsite, then that name got stolen by someone else. Tree, Sherwood - Those were nicknames I had as a teenager (Tall as a tree. Then tall as a forest. Since I shot bows-n-arrows, it was obviously Sherwood forest ) and tried to use, but they were both taken or stolen.

So, when I got tired of having my handle hijacked, I just start using my name and initial.

dkbs

mine is from the first initial of everybody in my immediate family from oldest to youngest.
Dan

buckeye

buckeye- because I am proud to live, hunt and fish in OHIO!!
buckhntr- because it is what I do. I live and breath deer hunting.

Sagittarius62

I was born under the sign of the archer so it just made sense. Unfortunately the word was already taken so I added the year of my birth.

Buck Magnet

I used Buck Magnet because it was a nickname that my best-friend and I came up with for my dad. Whenever he talks of hunting, we like to poke fun at him about how he use to "hunt in -10 degree weather, 4 feet of snow, and winds at 80 mph, and still kill deer", so, I just picked it as my name and I have stuck with it ever since

mikej92280

My name and my birthdate.

121553

I have this name because I am a complet MORON. I thought I was entering my password, but it didn't come out like that, I wish I had a kool name like everyone esle, but all I am is a freakin number, 12/15/53, Bobby

CamoHunter

My user name kinda has two meanings by accident. When I started thinking about a name I tried to think of something that would "fit me".
Since I bow hunt and turkey hunt most of all, I spend a lot of time in camo clothes so... CamoHunter.
Also I also saw CamoHunter arrows and thought that kind of fit also.
Good question, it's interesting to hear the reasons behind peoples names.
