My name is Craig and I usually go by the name Moreton on bowhunting sites. I mostly only go to one other site, Ozbow, an Australian Trad Bowhunting site. I hope to learn a lot, contribute what I can, and make some new mates here. I was so lucky recently in that a very generous man down here gave me an 18 kilogram stack of Traditional Bowhunter magazine! That’s every one from the very first Premier issue, right up to about 2005! Best read I ever had.
I’ve learned an absolute TON from them, and want to say THANK YOU to Mr. Conrads for publishing a mag of real value, as opposed to most of the rubbish at the newsagent, full of nonsense about celebrities that may or may not even be true.
Anyway, here’s to your campfire…I hope I can bring something of value to our Northern mates of the U.S of A. -
Welcome aboard Craig. I think you will like it around here. Lots of great folks to be with.

Hi Craig. You won’t be the only Oz-lander here. Welcome, Dave

Welcome! Looking forward to hearing about bowhunting from the land of nasties and bities!
I think I have all but seven of the TBM’s. I go back through them regularly. Certainly a treasure (and I am jealous as you must have all of the unavailable early issues!)

See, Moreton, I told you so! Welcome Ben! (We only recently got an upgrade to the site that allows selecting font, or type, size, and I was playing with it and gently harassing our webmother, Robin Conrads, here and on another post, with this newfound toy.) Dave

OK Dave, we get that you don’t like the 8pt.
You know, I hear that if you poke a little hole in a piece of paper and peer through it, it makes the text look bigger!
Welcome to the site Moreton, where it’s OK to poke a little fun.

Wow, what a fine welcome, thanks fellas. Good to hear from you, Ben, glad another Ozbow member comes here too. I’m just sorting out some of the pics of that last Cunnamulla trip to post up matey, and a few of our Texas trip ( a tiny country town here in Qld) I reckon it might be a bit of a novelty for these blokes. One of the places we hunt on this property is 30 KMs from the homestead and still on the same property! Not a bad spread of land to wander with the longbow.
When are you gunna get y’self up here for a hunt, mate? There must be a pig with your name on it running around up here somewhere!
It’s the opposite to your part of the world here, fellas, the further North you go, the more it’s like the South in the U.S., and sometimes Southerners get the impression the heat can send us a bit feral, hey Ben?
Like I imagine it would be coming fro the South in your country, fellas, when you go outside Queensland, having grown up here, people can pick where your from straight away by your accent! According to Southerners,apparently it’s some kind of Aussie version of Dixie mixed with Hillbilly ! LOL!
I look forward to making association with the folk here, you seem like most trad bowhunters I meet, bloody good blokes!

I wish I could find the little laughing guy smiley!
Nice pigs Ben. Was that recent? I was out there a couple of weeks ago and we didn’t see anything this time, not even any recent sign. They’ll be back, though, you could see the well worn pads where they had been cleaning up the fruit of the cacti (Prickly Pear?). Just good being there, had great company and enjoyed the chance to relax away from the city.

Welcome, there are a ton of great people here!
