With Father's Day not to far into our future, the burning question arises, what do I get dad for Father's Day? Well a perfect solution to that problem would be to get dad a gift card to his favorite place to shop.
For several years, I used the Remington 170 grain hollow points. These were deadly Deer takers! I stopped using them when I shot a large 8 point at about 80 yards. I later found the fragmented bullet on the far front leg, a few inches above the elbow, where it had broken the bone. I wasn't crazy about finding pieces of my bullet even if it had went through the buck and busted his leg on the far side. I went back to the 170 grain soft nosed bullets.

It was really in two segments. The first, in the late '80s and early '90s, was resolving the issues around my Dad. I just started seeing a lot of impact in my life that I finally narrowed down to Dad, and which actually are described in the book I published, "Freedom's Just Another Word." I had worked with a mentor in a 12 step program specifically for people who grew up in an alcoholic family, who showed me how to do exercises first to find my inner child - he was hidden in a corner of the room at that time, and didn't feel safe. Then to begin to honor, work with and heal my inner child. I just got better at doing over time.
A lot of inner child work involved. As a matter of fact, that will be the topic of my next book," And Then I Stop", about a writer's block I had that resulted from Grandma! I've done some amazing inner child work this past summer, and powerful healing has resulted from it. I've got that next book laid out now, because I just finished living through the events at the end of that book.
