Title: Dreams come true-eventually II
Post by: riivioristo on November 28, 2009, 04:27:00 PM
Hello folks !
Some time ago I wrote here about my good fortune - I found a bow I had dreamed a long time. It is a Black Widow MA III with 54# and 64"
The bow visited already Black Widow factory for little ajustments and new finish - man they are nice people there - service was so good that it amazes me still ! Anyways I promised a photo about the bow when I have harvested something with it- a snowshoe hare. Poor things are already white and there is no snow around...kinda easy to find them, hitting is ofcourse another story. With no big game hunting here in Finland this is almost as good as it can get  :)

Congrats on your find and your shot.  We have snowshoes in the northern part of this state as well.  They, too, are white already, and we have yet to get a serious snowfall.  They're definitely at a disadvantage re their predators. Nice pix.   :thumbsup:

I spend a lot of time sneaking around feed plots and winter grazing pasture in Febuary looking for rabbits.  They are great fun to hunt and they are good eating, too.  Bill

Great job!

Our jackrabbits around here are white.  With no snow they are very visible.  I just wish I had some time this weekend to chase them with a shotgun.  We've got some snowshoe hares here, but no where near as big as that one!
