You may have noticed the nip in the air these last couple mornings. In fact, some of you may have even noticed traces of ice on your windshield if you leave for work or school early enough. You may have noticed that a few of the trees have begun to change color ever so slightly.

Fall is upon us my friends and you all know what that means. It's time to check and double check all of your equipment, go over your list of last minute purchases and any needed adjustments. Your bow should be dialed in by now and you've practiced until the draw, hold, aim and release come as naturally and effortlessly as breathing. You're ready!

We wait all year for this and it passes by far too quickly. Either you get lucky and tag-out right away, or not so lucky and you run out of calendar before you run out of tags. It just never does last long enough. Between the camaraderie of deer camp with great friends and family and the special time you get to spend, all alone, out in nature, there is nothing better than hunting season in Michigan.

I would like to wish all of the Flint Bowmen members and non-members alike; all hunters here in Michigan or anywhere, the best hunting season ever.    But even more so I wish you all a SAFE and memorable hunting season. Be sure to use ALL of your safety equipment. Be sure that someone ALWAYS knows where you'll be hunting and when to expect you back. It's worth the extra time and effort to make sure you'll have many more hunting seasons ahead of you.

Good luck and God Bless!
