zuma, The toughest was giving mom CPR. Dad called and said something was wrong with her. We lived a short block away so my wife (a nurse) and I ran to the house and found mom on the floor. My wife and I worked on her what seemed like forever until the ambulance arrived to take her to the hospital.. My wife rode with the ambulance and continued with CPR until they got the ER.
Mom was 61 years old.
Zuma:
Del, is that how Robin Hood got the maid? By shooting shafts near her feet?
Will Tell was about as risky with his son.
Pappy from what I have read and heard about the Classic you and your wife are the inspirational ones.

I got a bow and arrow for christmas one year and was hooked. Davey Crockett was my idle but he didn't shoot a bow and arrow.

I can't really say where it all began but what I remember clearest is an article written decades ago by a man who hunted with compressed wood shafts for buffalo.. Later I read that the shafts were called sweetwood. I enjoy making my own equipment and for a person to think of compressing wood was just too cool.
