Stick, explain the forearm guard if you will. Merry Christmas.
Pop's was(is) very much hoping to arrow a masher with his Traditional Longbow,POC cedar and Turkey feathers...so was at the ready,on the average. Spied him the above Buck in a locale that precluded a sneak and said "you can smash him with my 22-250AI(1-7.7" Kreiger/75S2's) or watch him walk away".
He couldn't pass the opportunity,though few could...............(grin)
