My son Tanner is 12yrs old and is hunting his first year.  He is shooting a rocky mtn bow as well. I wanted one of those bows in the 80's so bad I could taste it!! So I bought one here on tradgang last year. He has done quite well so far this year and I'll post some pics at another time. But be warned we are not standing behind no elk like your boys are puttin' down, UFF-DA!

We'll be hunting with the St Judes bow "Ms Hope" this weekend. Schuster will also be here this weekend on doe patrol.

Don't let Baker pull the wool over your eyes guys I don't care where you hunt here in montana if you pull out as many quality elk as Mark, Fish and there boys have done over the years with the equipement they're useing, you know what your doing.

Mark,

Just fantastic! Thanks for sharing and I am LOL about the David Peterson comment  :D  not that I am a fan of ATVs. Like using my feet when I can, but man the years are adding up here.  :D  

You must be very proud just great Mark!

Thanks all...and nice to hear you're out with your kids Brian.  For those wanting to know, both selfbows were made by myself.  Kory's is an unbacked osage, 58 inches nock to nock with moosehorn tip overlays, and pulls an honest 70 lbs.  He took an interest last year with the selfbows, so has been shooting that one since last season, when he took a couple does with it.  My bow is osage, with a pair of bull snake skins that I got from Ralph Renfro at MOJAM a couple years back....pulls 62ish and is 62 inches nock to nock, with sheephorn overlays.

Mark,

Congrats to you all and way to go! Looks like you all have made some great meat.

Was that Shania you were shooting? Or one of the others.

Good luck and best wishes the rest of your season.
Being first, making a mark and being part of
something great!

May you keep the wind to your nose, have the patience of Job, and have your Firstarrow fly true.

Hey Mark, Congrats w/ the success and it's nice to see your family is doing well. Those sure are some pretty bows. I can't wait to read about Kory's bull. It's a nice one. Next Saturday is our opening day here in PA and to say I'm getting pumped and anxious would be an understatement! Good Luck on getting your bull!!
Keep the sun at your back and the wind in your face.

Mark, doesn't get much better than that! Hunting with the boys is as close to Heaven as you'll get here on earth.

Congrats my friend.
