It took two shots... the top limb hit the top of my blind and sent the arrow off course! BT53 "Where do they find young men like this?" Reporter Savidge, Iraq Elk, it's what's for dinner....

I think he was tickled to see that his bow was being used to good purpose. I hope to meet him at one of the Trad shoots this summer. BT53 "Where do they find young men like this?"
