Ok let’s do this part

My name is mike wagstaff I was first baby born n 1975 n Shelby co, lived in Shelby co as a kid then my parents moved to Jefferson co during my elementary years n went to groves elementary middle school n png high school. My 7th grade science teacher was big into archery n got me excited in it, I started lashing trees together that would shoot a 2018 a couple hundred yards. When I was 12 I went to ac’s archery n port acres n got a compound n started shooting every day, the next year I bought a Damon howatt hunter. I went to work at ac’s when I turned 16 n stayed till they shut the doors in 92 n I left n moved back to Shelby co with my grandparents.

I went to panola college n their forestry program n was a timber buyer after I got out, then ended up skidded spraying logging etc. in 99 moved to warren n went to work for champion international n Ip took us over n layer us off so we tstarted our own wood dealership n was in on the buying n selling of champions land. We ran 30-40 loggers for 12 years n I did controlled burning as well burning 10,000-15,000 acres a year. During this time I opened my own bow and gun shop first n Chester then moved it to Livingston. Had it for 9 years n then divorce closed it as well as my logging crew trucks controlled burning so I left n went to running a airboat spraying lakes in tx n la. Then I went to work at crest natural resources n will have to drag me away dead!! Got remarried as well. Have 4 kids, 4 step kids n 2 grand babies. Life member nra, sons of confederate veterans as well. I’m big into history especially 1865 n before.

While I had my bowshop I got back into 3D archery big time,started my own course as well as me n my ex became asa southern reps, as well as shooting every asa shoot in tx n going to roams all over the country. I have bowfished for 30 years n use to be hardcore on the tournament trail but my back doesn’t allow me to do that anymore.

Ima gun and bow nut n have been since I was 5, also shoot firearms competition n love traditional muzzleloaders. I have the guy sell trade disease bad n went through hundreds of bows n over a thousand guns I have killed hogs with 94 different calibers, compound recurve n longbow. Part of my job is hunting n trapping hogs coons n beavers. I look after 100,000 acres n get to play a lot!! I have guided n culled deer on several mld places and taking clients. I still hunt with all forms of bows n guns n always will. I reload castbullets build all my own arrows, forge knives n hawks. I’ve hunted CO many time with lots of luck, took bear in Canada n looking forward to Buffalo with muzzleloader n longbow. I tend to shoot only long bows these days but got recurved n compounds around as well. Still bowfish n shoot 3D with both as well

I’ll stop before I write a book I can go on all day!!! Enjoy the bow so far, love the thin grip!! I have had 11 of bobs bows n this grip feels better than ones I remember!!
