Memory...

[bowriter]

Maybe when you see something several times a day, it loses some of the glimmer. I walk under the small 5X5 over a dozen times a day. This morning, I stopped and looked at it.

I could almost smell the frost. This was the first bull elk I killed with a bow. I believe it was 197??, just above Spread Creek in the Tetons. It was a 12-yard shot and he ran about 150-yards...downhill, away from the truck of course. My B-I-L and I dined on him sumptuously that night. I wish i could remember what bow I was shooting. I believe it was a 55#, fixed draw American.

Good memory

I don't have near the memories that you do by a looong shot, but I know it's a good feeling to let yourself go back to that moment in time when you took one of your trophies. That's what it's all about.

Very

That elk rack looks pretty big to me BW. By the way, what are the plaques for? Are they some kind of awards?

Those are awards for writing or photography.
