I think some of you have seen my bow post of the "His and Her" bows ......well it is his and her daughter's (my granddaughter) first birthday Jan 29. After Marshall I am going to retire this bow to my granddaughter and name it "Theirs" and date it her birthday.
Thanks for looking.......your probably tired of turkey feathers.... :)
till next time .....now off to the bathroom remodel. :'(

Fab, Bill!

These are all looking great guys! Did I read correctly that you were planning on shooting these at each other? Kind of like archery tag? It sounds like fun but I was just wondering what tips you have on your arrows.

Cade, I think they are all going to shoot them at me.  It won't be the first time I've had arrows flying by me at Marshall.


Bill, your the turkey backed expert.  Great job on that little bow.  I'm sure They will like it.


Knoll, glad to see you are playing by the rules.

Not quite following the rules yet!  Even 0.3 inches extra yardage is likely still enough to get you 'burned'.  Best get out the hatchet...

2-finger tab is improvement over bare fingers!
