    The Bowtech truck Pat used to drive has been outside a small archery/fishing store here in De all week. Havn't had time to go in so does anyone know why it is at such a small establishment all week and who is driving it?

    I was only the back up driver but obviously not anymore...

    Hans Saunders is the full time Event Specialist that runs all over the country with it.

    On the way to the Dover NASCAR race last week he got an emergency call and had to go home in Arkansas. His wife had suffered a heart attack and when she collapsed her dog's leash got wrapped around her neck leaving her without oxygen for 3-5 minutes. Very scary stuff and the last update said she may be going home in the next day or two but they want to run another test or two.

    Even though I don't work for BowTech anymore Hans will always be a brother to me and I imagine anyone that knows him would feel the same way.

    Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers...

    I had the pleasure of meeting Hans in Nebraska last spring. He hung out at my booth a couple times and we had some very good conversations....he spoke very highly of you, Pat.

    My thoughts and prayers will be with Hans and his wife.

    Wow, sorry to hear about Han's wife. I know he has been going through a ruff time lately and was worried his job was next to be cut. I hope things work out for everyone and she makes a recovery.

    She got to come home over the weekend. They did some extensive testing, I believe they put in a stint and for now they don't see the need for a defribulator. My prayers continue and I ask you all do the same. Hans and Michelle are really great people...
