Did you have a tag for the book, too? Lol.

;-) No book tag.
Since going down memory lane, here's the story about that really nice tree referenced earlier. It's been a long time ago so some details are no longer clear; but here goes...
I was deer hunting with a bow. Deer appeared and stopped broadside at about my max comfortable shooting range. There was a small maple tree immediately in front of and centered over his vitals; but... He was right behind the tree and his vitals showed on each side. I made the decision to aim for that tree on the theory that - even though I was hitting some 3D shoots - I'd never hit that tree at that distance and would put the arrow in the vitals.
Nailed that little tree dead center. Probably one of my finest shots ever. Went back later, cut the tree trunk off below and above where the broadhead was buried. Unscrewed the shaft, filed the exposed portion of the blades so they were dull, and took it home as a souvenir.
