And so now you know how proper we were on our dates! I will have to scan and send you a copy of the picture I have of Clark's car.

Trakehners are the  ne plus ultra  of three phase eventing, in my estimation. These warm-bloods have size, strength, hybrid vigor, intelligence and the good temperament to make a strong, solid, yet fluid performer. You are so lucky to have them around, you must have picked a verrrry smart wife!

Great story and pics, not sure you are going to compete with Dr Ashby  :D  

Killdeer that must have been quite a step up, dating a guy with a car

Falk you never cease to amaze me. Great knowledge, good shooting, great findings, and you own horses; Outstanding! I think the tailgate is dead by the way!I thank for a great thread!

Bored ay. thanks, for the findings jonesy

I have never been an admirer of cars. I started out well, dated a guy with a horse. It was in my declining years that I found myself seeing a guy with an automobile.  :(

Thanks for the many smiles.  You made my evening.  Beautiful horses.

Killy, my wife smart? Hmmm? Yes, but two times she failed:
1) ... she sayed "yes" when I "asked" her one day (and I still know the very date!)
2) ... a decade later she damaged the car    

Trakehner horses are a nice breed, of course. I cant complain to much I suppose?! But give them one shovel of oats to much and they'll react like a coilspring. Scary!

Bentpole,
... not on purpose, not on purpose! But certainly glad you think so

Falk I also shoot Ribteks 190g there to me one of the better head around.

Falk,

Very funny and creative....and interesting too!

With the recently available updates from Dr. Ashby I thought it might be fun to bring this to the top again - not to steal something from Doc Ed, but to give an example of single bevel performance.

The best news of all is though, that the Opel will soon be gone and history! Hopefully!
:D  Falk

What kind of oil trail was left from that Opel?  Were you able to track it?  Spurting oil or just a steady drip?

Falk   really enjoyed the story but the barn really brought memories of a house and barn combo all house now.My wife and I stayed with a couple for a week in Dubuy,Belgium in 1988 had a great time.shot his bows,air guns and did kayaking and bike riding and drank some brown beer.Thanks for the memories.Kip

Falk, vielen Dank für Bringen dies hinter auf. Ich habe es das erstes Mal verpasst. Es sieht aus, wie deutsche Männer als viel Unheil gegeben einige Freizeit und etwas Bogenschießenausrüstung machen können.    Ich entschuldige mich, wenn mein Deutsch arm ist, ist es eine Klotz Zeit und gewesen, den ich mich auf einem Englisch/deutschem Wörterbuch verlassen musste.

You should revisit that tailgate with front loaded carbons. A Gold Tip 5575 with 500 grains up front may well bury up to the fletching.

a Texas heart shot on an Opal?? Say it isn't so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
