The Old Man's Longbeard

[BRDHNTR]

Arrived back at my son in law's early this morning and headed out back with my bow and turkey call. Walked over a knoll in the woods and ran smack into a nice tom and hen. Drew down on the tom as he slowly and much to my surprise walked away. Let one arrow fly at less than 20 yards....you know the rest of the story. He's still courting that hen but is probably looking over his shoulder. Only if I had one of my Parkers with me instead of the bow..

Is the reason they call them Smart Phones the reason they don't give you an owner manual ? I guess I'm just not that smart...

I certainly don't need a phone that's smarter than me, I just need one to make a phone call.... not tweet, twitter or twadle. This world of instant communication is somewhat stressful at times and I would like to go back to the old days of the rotary phone and a party line. If you know what a party line is your showing your age. I like old guns, old cars, old furniture and mature women. My daughter calls me an old fart. I'm proud of that.

Very well put "Old Fart"....

Daryl, Did you ever turn the crank to get the operator and tell her the number you wanted? Cheers, Tom

Allen, not sure why you missed but my experience is aim a bit high. Turkeys tend to jump the arrow. Better luck next time!
