Another suggestion would be the Saunders Pak tab. You can build it up in layers, to your preference. I get a good release, and have had no trauma to my fingers since using one. I shoot 66 lbs., and it’s very comfortable.

Dave, you haven’t inflicted anything on us. We came to offer our shoulders, to ease the burden from you. Only time can blunt the pain.

May God Bless You.

Didn’t Charlie Brown try to nickname himself Flash, or something similar. And Lucy gave him what for when he let it slip.

Grumpy, first of all, I’m a Dixie from West Tennessee. Raised on a dirt road, picked cotton by hand, raised quarterhorses, and still say “Yes, Ma’am” to my Mama.

I’m retired, but babysit 4 of my gkids. My 4 year old gdaughter has never seen me without my white beard. One day she was in my lap talking to me. I hadn’t shaved my cheeks in a few days, and suddenly she was staring at my face. When I asked, she said “Papa, you’ve got little tiny hairs growing out of your face. JUST LIKE A DOG!”

I wouldn’t take a million dollars for things like that.

Any name given by a 9 year old should be treasured, never changed. Besides, everytime I see your name, it makes me grin, and think about some of my exchanges with my grandkids.

Speaking of suspending belief,, even though I’ve read and enjoyed all of Capstick’s books, the opinion of every African PH we’ve asked, said he was never a licensed hunter. The most popular thought train was that he was a resort/bar manager who collected all those tales, then just inserted himself in the hero’s slot. I don’t know the truth, but my brothers and I have questioned several people from several African countries, and that was the overwhelming result. He was a very entertaining writer, if you liked his wannabe Ruark style, and I guess I do, since I think I own all his books.

I think I’ve read all his books, and loved every one. I’ve often said that if only half his stories were true, ( I believe everything he wrote is real, if only because he wrote so humbly about his adventures), he had to be one of the bravest men ever.

A young lady vendor from up North called me once, and lit in on me with her sales pitch. After a full minute, I had to stop her and tell her, “Dear Lady, you’re talking to me in Yankee, and I’m listening to you in Tennessee Redneck, and I ain’t understood the first word you said yet. You gonna have to slow down.” She thought it over, we became good phone friends, and did business for many years after that. (With only an occasional “slow down” from me.

I find this very interesting, but have no answer. We don’t have a recognized population of lions anywhere near where I am in West Tennessee. I sure would love for Dr. Don Thomas to weigh in here. He seems to have given a lot of thought to lions and their hunting, and I always find his opinions thought-provoking.
