It’s been five years since my son drowned in Arizona’s Gila River, and five years in a row I’ve taken a turkey with his bow and arrows, keeping his memory alive.

Congrats Sheds. I am so sorry for your loss. I couldn't imagine having to deal with the loss of a child. It is something far too many people have to experience.
I am sure your son would be stoked to know that you are getting it done with his gear.
