I just read on another site that Texas bowhunting legend, LSBA Hall of Fame member Bill Negley has passed away. That's one of a few old school Texas bowhunters that I would have liked to have met.

Prayers for the family and happy hunting in the sky to Bill.

That's too bad. I think I recall when we voted him into the Bowhunter Hall of Fame. I never met him personally, but he sounded like a great hunter.

Hopefully I'll see him some day in the Indian's "Happy Hunting Grounds".

Sad day indeed. A true Bowhunting Hero throughout the world, not just Texas.

God Speed Bill and I'm sure in Heaven a broadhead never dulls, the wind is always in your face and there's game a plenty.

I've read that he's done some crazy stuff in regard to hunting. And I mean that in a good way. Also, he drew and shot a heavy, I think 90+# traditional bow. Could have my facts wrong, but I don't think so.

Sad to see them go. Thats for sure.
