Had the opportunity to meet a gentleman in Goldthwaite, Texas yesterday who was 94 YEARS YOUNG and shot a 10 point drop tine buck this season. He said it's still a good feeling, even though his hunting partner (his wife) passed away last summer! The gentleman got around just as though he was half that age! Very good day!

I know what you mean. A few weeks ago I went over to the local golf course to hit a few balls at the driving range. It was such a beautiful day I changed my mind and decieded to walk 18 holes. Ended up being paired up with an 84 year old gent. We walked (with pull carts) and played the 18 holes. He did just fine. Maybe a shorter stride than when he was younger but walked it all. His name is Eloy and he told me he does it quite often since his wife died 4 years ago. I would hope to be as spry in old age as Eloy or the 94 year old deer hunter is.
