I tried the Bowhunters Meditation Module yesterday. I plan on trying to do this at least weekly rotating the visualization through different stands/locations that I hunt. I’m really liking some of the structured mental exercises available here.

At 69 I had to finally switch to crossbow. Still love the woods. Bury me on a south slope.

PS - Make sure to DM @Jenn Richardson your address so I can ship your decal 🎉

I feel compelled to share something about my life so I'll try. I was medically retired from the U.S Army in 2007 after 18 years of service. Three tours to Iraq and one to Somalia, Africa in 1993. I faught in each tour, as a medic I had two enemies, the other man and death that came for my brothers. If not for the love of God, my loving and patient wife and traditional archery, I would have ended the pain. Because of these three, loving God back, looking for honest ways to SHOW my wife that I love, respect and appreciate her and focusing on shooting my bows has over time shifted my looking at my past to getting better and seeking better and higher ways to improve the three loves of my life. God, Tonya my wife and all things traditional archery. Thank you for building this community. Much love for you all.

I have been going through and reading the stuff that people are posting. It’s amazing we are centered around traditional bow hunting but there is everything that can be in our lives. And it is shared so everyone can enjoy our thoughts and adventures. I thank you Grant and Jenn setting this up. And the rest of you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. May God bless you all.
