I have a copy of “Bowhunting ” by Chuck Adams.circa 1978. Inside is a picture of a youthful Chuck standing beside a strung hog.The caption reads as follows.”Wild boars like this 216-pounded have nylon-like callous -shields across their ribs.These sheilds are up to one inch thick -solid barriers which stop all but the fastest, straightest -flying arrows.The author shot this burly hog just behind the right shoulder with a 70-pound compound bow, and got barely six inches of arrow penetration-just enough to reach one lung.Without good-flying arrows he would not have seriously hurt the animal, let alone killed it.”

Chuck has always been a hoot and done more than any other individual to promote the insanity of ultra-long shots and all the misinformation that goes with that mindset.

I used to do some serious reading in the evenings–trad hunting with Thomas, Petersen, Conrad, evolutionary biology, physics, etc. Now I find my self spending time on this forum—where I have thought more, laughed more,learned more, and had a tear or so. What an amazing group.

Dr. Ed–your left ear seems a bit ruffled and have you tried a touch of good scotch for happy hour–may improve that scowl.:lol::lol:

Thanks to you all.

Sir–I forgot your continent of happy hour–I remember “sundowners” in Nairobi–after we were leaving Somalia. A patron silver toast tonight–trust we will meet personally in some get together soon–first round is on me second pink gin on you:D
