You lucky dog. He looks like he will be able to handle it soon!!
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Ephesians 2:8-9

I received a long white tube on my porch yesterday. It was from tatoo dave. I was thrilled to get it and the anticipation to open it was almost too much. I received a bautiful ash linen backed long bow, with a camo dye in the Lenin and a forest green out toward the tips that fades into the natural wood color. It has a great leather handle wrap, with water buffalo horn as a rear and a small turkey fetcher at the bottom of the handle on the back. The string has some nice beaver silencers and the string is well made.

I didn't string it up yesterday, I wanted her to aclamate to the humidity, but I did string her up and shoot her today. She is 50lbs at 28 inches and shoots an arrow hard and fast. This is my first bow trade and I couldn't be happier. I am honored by all the hard work Dace put into "my" bow. It will be a cherished bow that I will always hold onto and hunt with. It feels good in my hand and has a smoth draw. ;) I will be posting pics maņana of Mu special bow.

Dave many thanks amigo ;)

I got a call from my granddaughters that a long white tube had showed up today.  Had a couple hours of long wait before I got home and could pull it out.  As soon as I saw the return address, I realized I had watched Noel's video so I knew what the bow would look like.  Nobody was available to take full draw shots in the limited time I have tonight.  I did have the granddaughters hold it and give me their rendition of a full draw.



The sun was a little bright for them...but Lillian wanted to pull it too.



Life is good.  More pictures tomorrow I hope.  Thanks for the note Noel. :)
