az_shooter Report post Posted January 16, 2013 How did they some one steal your bow? Either way it sucks that some people have to be such low life's to take something that someone spent their hard earned money on, I would call around to pawn shops and bow shops to see if some body has tried to come in and sell one, hope you get it back.

billrquimby Report post Posted January 16, 2013 After losing 35 rifles and shotguns to burglars in September, I know exactly how you feel. If you have homeowner's insurance, you might call your agent and ask if it covers your loss. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmill29 Report post Posted January 16, 2013 Hello,wanted to clear up some info on this missing bow. The bow belongs to Josh not Justin Josh asked him to post a thread on here becouse he cant remember his password to log on. but after I called him and read it to him he asked me to come on here and clear some info up. The bow was lost just east of the top of gates pass at the small pull out on the north side. Josh was at his truck at dark putting his Pack away and getting ready to leave. He had his bow sitting next to the truck and somehow he drove off without it. He didn't realize it was missing into he got home and started to unload his gear. He drove back up there but the bow was not there. He said there was a white Chevy 2500 1999-2004 parked there when he let and feels that they may have picked it up As we all would have done the same. So by no means does be consider it stolen it was just picked up by someone. So if anyone nows anything or seen the truck please send a pm over and I can get you in touch with the owner. Sorry for the confusion on this! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.smith Report post Posted January 16, 2013 That makes more sense. Embarrassingly enough I have done the same thing. Fortunately I got my bow back pretty quickly. Propped it up against my tire while taking off my pack... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted January 16, 2013 Man bummer, I too did this ounce but went back for it and found it. In a rush after spotting some bucks I threw on my pack and took off after them when about 5 minutes later my partner asked me if I planned on throwing rocks at the deer? Hope someone see this and finds the owner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azbow Report post Posted January 17, 2013 Must happen a lot. I found a really nice Mathews bow in a parking area on the Fain road in 19a one night. I was the last one there, coming out after dark and noticed something white on the gound by the fence. The white vanes on the carbon arrows in the quiver caught my eye. I waited around for a while to see if the owner would come back but then went on to camp. I felt bad about the guy worrying about his bow all might. I went back there extra early the next morning and there was the guy that owned the bow. He looked pretty rough from worrying all night and wasn't dressed to hunt that day. He took the bow with hardly a mumbled "thanks". That bow had a laser range finder on it and some other nice equipment, way better and more expensive than I had, but I felt good to get it back to the owner. I bet whoever found this bow will be trying to find the owner also. Hope you get it back soon so you can keep chasing those big bucks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
