This was a real surprise today. Shot in the back yard. Thought I had better get him before the 'yotes or cats.

My dad & I spent alot of time hunting, even with his parkinsons I still took dad just to get him outta the house. Those memories are priceless.

I pray for your speedy recovery.

I was concerned that I would nick the carbon shafts if I used only a knife.
