She can go fishing with me.
I can see only two things that might get in her way
Oh, its not because of the camera? Her head is always twisted and tilted to the side?
She can pull an 85 lb bow.... she’d hit your teeth into last Wednesday....
You got to get by her Bow first.
I dig tomboys with painted toenails.

Teressa Hagerman was born in Texas and raised in Southwest Missouri. She graduated from Missouri Southern State University with a BS degree in psychology, with minors in sociology, math, political science, and history. She also played basketball, softball, and rugby while in college.
Teressa began hunting at the age of 24 in South Africa. A year later, she started marketing for Out of Africa Adventurous Safari’s and became a Professional Hunter in South Africa. While working for Out of Africa she honed her hunting skills in the bush, guiding.
Teressa is a life member of Safari Club International, and serves on the board of directors for the Kansas City SCI chapter. She is also a member of the NRA, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, National Wild Turkey Federation, and the SCI Sables.
She has lectured on African safari’s in numerous venues including; schools, women’s organizations and safari club meetings.
There can’t be more than about 3% of American men who could pull an 85-lb bow easily enough to hit anything with it, if at all.
I was glad I was able to assist Teressa in her quest.
Now, an 85# recurve is a different matter. That would be a tough one to shoot.
The ancient English military bows were about 120 pounds pull. Shot right through French armor at Agincourt.
French armor?
Oxymoron of the day?
The only thing more dangerous than being a French armored knight was being the one who had to string the bow.
There's still that little thing about the 85 lbs at mid draw. Like I say, there's probably about 3% of American men who'd get past that point.
At Agincourt the frogs charged into a funnel-shaped field and then trampled themselves at the narrow part of the funnel. Some historians claim that even if no English had been present and the frogs had only been required to plant their lances in straw targets, half of them would have still died.
