    Holy Crap!!!!

    Is that what Bruce Lanthier looks like? I'd never seen his picture before. You know how you get this mental image of what someone looks like based on their voice on the phone?

    Tony, give him a HUGE congratulations from me and also tell him that things just aren't the same here since he's been gone. I sure learned a lot from him. I know others have as well, but I really appreciated him calling me on the phone to walk me through problems. He is a great guy. :tu:

    Edit: I should just e-mail him. I still have his e-mail address. Do you want me to wait so you can break the news that you've posted this here? :D

    I just sent him an e-mail.

    Tony - Thanks for posting this. Really. :tu:

    He is one of four people I've met on the forums who could call me and tell me they needed help and I'd be on my way inside of 24 hours.

    Thats a great looking deer and a well placed shot. Too bad we won't get the first hand account. Kudos!
