This one is not that old.  Maybe 15 years.  Can anyone guess who these folks are. All are archers, some are still with us. If you guess all correctly I'll fix one of your broken arrows.  You pay shipping    :bigsmyl:        :bigsmyl:    ...Van

Van, that's your dad and Jay Massie, probably at the GLLI at Marshal. The picture above is Mrs Pearson and Glenn Parker on the left. I guess I don't recognize any of the others with your dad.

I could spend all day on this thread. Thanks for sharing, everyone.

This is the best thread. I sure wish all my old hunting pics had not been lost in a fire several years ago, would love to post some here for all to see. Not near as good as Ron's, Charlies and Van's, but would have been nice.
