Bowhunting until you are 75...thoughts
My wife thinks I am crazy but I always tell her my personal goal is to continue to bowhunt until I am 75 years old! It will give me a reason to stay in good shape throughout the years. Hopefully when I am 75 years old, there will be bows out there with a 20 lb draw that shoot 300fps!
Any of you have age goals that are bowhunting specific?

My family has a problem of living too long 
I myself have beaten the hell out of myself over the years so I figure I can try and make it until 80!

Ihad a gentleman, Jerry from Corvallis MTorder some of our camo about 2 weeks ago. Spoke to him a few times over the phone, great guy. I was pleasantly suprised to hear he was 75 years youngand had taken up bow hunting not to long ago.I could only hope to still be bowhunting at that age, truely inspiring.

Yes Greg--hopefully my son(s) and friends will build some ladder stands for me...and I will pack in a 5 pound ground blind....a 20 pound climber on the other hand is a no no.
