Big, Bad Bill T

I haven't talked to Bill in a while, anyone know how he's doing?

[Boo]

Probably hunting!

[GaryDowdy]

You're right! I saw on your site where you didn't want people to try and turn your hobby in a job. I know exactly what you mean! There is enough stress in this world without people trying to add to it!

Hopefully he's getting the new string bumpers ready to market so I can get this STS crap off my bow.

Hi Guys!
I've been busy as heck between getting ready for hunting season, trying to coax along a few new projects with the business, and maintaining an extra farmhouse that we are in the process of selling. With the weather this summer it seems like all I've been doing is cutting grass! Kath and I were supposed to go to Africa on a hunt for plains game this summer but with everything that's going on we cancelled and stayed home. That said, we are going to go down to Ohio in a month or so and hunt with the backwoods guys for a few days and we have a hunt in Maryland with Allan Probst for Sika deer scheduled for December. Other than that I'll be cavorting in the woods and swamps with a young blonde (My lab Dusty) as much as deer hunting will allow. I'm not getting out to as many shows as I used to be since our sales staff has grown to the point where I am redundant, and although I miss seeing all of your happy faces it's kinda nice to get a break after 27 years of flogging crossbows.
