A Teaser....

#1 Post by Captainkirk »

Some of you may recall that on St. Patrick's Day I won a bow for my granddaughter Evie on another forum's "Giveaways" contest. T'was the luck o' the Irish, I tell ye! I had been secretly entering her name unbeknownst to her or her family every month since last summer and this time I hit pay dirt!
Well, here are a couple 'teaser' photos...

I just love a good nailbiter...don't you? :mrgreen:

This last Xmass I replaced my Grandsons fiberglass little brave with a pup long bow. he used so shoot the little brave until all his arrows stuck in the target, sometimes that took hours. He has yet to miss the target with the pup and they all stick in so now he empties his quiver once and goes on his way. how is that for gratitude.

Now that Flickr is behaving again....

Proud Daddy and his little girl (pay no mind to that...ummm...hat...)

The awesome armguard and tab provided by Mike's Archery Leather...

The arrows provided by BudB...

More random bow shots

...note the hand in-motion grabbing for the bow...

Photos clearly do not do this bow justice. Mike builds an amazing bow and clearly puts his heart into it, even for the kids. I wish we could orchestrate a give-away like that over here for kids. Any of our sponsors want to have a shot at it?
