I will always remember one cool October afternoon when Bobby took me to his private hunting ground which turned out to be not so private! LOL As I passed up two nice bucks in lieu of a big 12 pointer Bobby told me about, He certainly wasn’t the only one who new…
About an hour before dust everyone in the county must have showed up looking for the big one! Soon after I saw movement in the bush 20 feet away. Figuring it was the BIG BOY I drew my bow back and waited for him to pop his head out. A second later I saw Bobby bright face peek out from around the bush and said; Piss Al, did you hear those cars? I laugh and said, NAH Bob, but I did see a whole “CARAVAN OF TRUCKS” loaded with hunters drive by !!! So much for the secrete spot…LOL
Bobby simply was a man who loved to hunt, fish and share his outdoor adventures with. But above all, he was sportsman and a very dear friend.
I will never forget having shared his love of the outdoors together.
He will sadly be missed but never forgotten.
