When I turned 70 BT said I had become an "old man." So, how many old guys (gals) will we have hunting this fall season. You have to be at least 70 to be in the old hunters club. ;D ;D I am 71 but will hit 72 this January.  Ghost |

 :-*I'm only 35 and can't imagine living through a season without being out there chasing deer. I've been bowhunting since I was 12 and have not fired a gun at a deer in 5 seasons or so. I respect all you guys out there doing that are over 60 especially with a bow.

My dad brouht his guns to me this year and said he was done cause he could not get through the woods anymore. He is 83. I love that man and he is my hero.
Ghost you got a few more years in you yet cause if my Dad can do it so can you.
Happy hunting and keep active.

Never underestimate the old timers!!! Some of what you guys are saying reminds me of my ex-wife's grandfather...he was an incredible man, and a WWII vet... I went to his house one day, and couldnt find him anywhere...the dog was there (they went everywhere together), so I knew he was around there somewhere...Being 82, i didnt figure I would find him where I found him... He was re-roofing the barn!!!! i couldnt believe it..I hope Im still going strong at that age too!!!
