My Boostock pics

Although it was the first time meeting Ken Cull for some reason it didn't feel that way at all. Ken is a true gentleman!


The competition


Campers


Steve Elmy of Rackstacker generously donated some prizes


Some old guys who think they are competitive shooters


Intended wounding victims of the competition


The loot!


Greener/Craig from Gagnon Sports who tirelessly helped me set up, provided 3d targets, convinced Gagnons to donate a target as a prize!


The watchers of the loot. Tracy (Big John's better looking half) on your left, Patty (Rolly's smarter half ) and Karen (Unie Fester's boss).


Another picture of the local mobsters


The mob waving good bye to my arrows


The mob figuring out who is going to mess with my scope!



Steve Elmy (Rackstacker) shooting


Seeing this picture makes me realize how many good people were there


My favorite dog Breeze. Oh, my wife Karin on your right. What a great wife! and Moni (Vixchix) Poor Uncie Fester had to say in the little trailer!



Tim (TPM) shooting



Karin wishing she was married to someone more mature! Norm (enormous) looking cool as usual!


Now where do we hide Don's arrows?


Catcher and Big John agreeing on where to put my arrows


A quick get away!


They can keep my arrows cause I won't mess with guys as big as that!


Xbowkid (Rob White) feeling bad for being involved in an arrow crime.


Sorry Kevin (doemaster) we will not use your potatoes for a prize!


I don't want to know what's going on there!


Kevin loading up the potato cannon planting next year's crop!


Someone's got an itch!


Tracy's a sweetheart! It's her first time shooting a crossbow. John couldn't say no to shooting a crossbow in front of everyone. She shoots better than John!


I'll show him!


I did show him!


The famous double rainbow!


I had a great weekend with friends new and old!

Jim, it was a pleasure to meet you! You're chili was perfect! Perfectly spiced! I pigged out!

Great pictures . . .dry-fire . . .did someone dry-fire? Hard to believe all those folks would just stand there and say nothing while you pulled the trigger.

For Patti and I it was nice road trip from Windsor to be part of the fun on Saturday. I have met a few forum members in the past and today I would like to say hello to some recent members that I have met at Boofest such as Doe Master, Catcher, TPM, Comfy, Tom, Big John, Tom. Nice to meet you!

In no particular order I want to thank Don and Karin for their hard work and making it happen, Bill T for sending T shirts and swag for Kevin to distribute at Boofest. Also, some great food was prepared and shared. Karin's goose, boar stew was very tasty, Jim and Sheila make a fantastic ass kicking venison chili. He or she who got blacked chicken from Kevin were in for a real treat, thats for sure.

We both leave on a 6 day tent camping trip to Lake Superior Provincial Park tomorrow. I can get Boofest pictures up when we return.

It sounds like it was a great time. I wish I could have been there. It would be great to finally get a face with the names. Awesome setup with the different targets. You put on a good show Boo.
I'd love to take that rackstacker beast for a drive out bush here

Dry fire sounds so harsh Don.
I'm refering to it as the P.A.D. incident....Projectile Absent Discharge....has a better ring to it don't you think!!

I would like to first say thank you to Boo ( Don ) he is a great host and most generous man. He truly is a great person. I have been to a couple of his functions and each time his hospitality is second to none .My wife still thinks it is a little weird that I go and meet my internet friends. But I promise her that Don was not after my organs. I told her that I would be home before the lighted nocks made an appearance. Everybody from the forum and guests were really excellent people and all were most generous. You could walk over to the line where we were all shooting from and you would have 2 or 3 people offering you to shoot their bow and were handing it to you before you could even respond. During the shooting competition everyone was offering each other bows to use. And since I did not bring my bow I took Big John's offer to use his crossbow. I liked his becasue it had a thumb hole and I always wanted to use one of those from Excalibur. John told me to hold the chevron on thirty and it would hit there. And boy it did , and I was fortunate to come away with a great prize. Don and others made stews and chillies for everyone to eat and I must say Don can cook too. He made a wild turkey , wild boar and wild goose stew that was excellent. After that we sat around the camp fire a exchanged some huntin story's and good times. Myself and Unclefester talked some deer talk but is all strictly confidential. All in all it was a great time and I am very honored to have you all as my " Internet friends " as my wife would say. Good times and great memories until the next time.

My wife still thinks it is a little weird that I go and meet my internet friends.

Bring your bride and kids next time Gerry!

[sumner4991]

Gerry . . .my wife calls them "my internet buddies" . . .with a little higher pitched voice at "bu" and throws a "t" or two in there and has a bit of a studder at that point. Jealous . . .pure and simple.

I gather you didn't have to save anyone this trip.

Who's going to get the bigger buck this year? You or Ken?

[vixenmaster]
