Title: New bow under Christmas tree?
Post by: gordydog on December 23, 2011, 09:09:00 AM
Anyone have any pictures of that new bow under the Christmas tree.  Anyone ever surprised by your wife and get a new bow on Christmas for the best gift ever.

I haven't received a bow for Christmas but I did get one from my girlfriend for our one year anniversary. She conspired with my Dad and got me a 77 Bear Kodiak Hunter that I'd been watching on the auction site.

Here it is:  http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=094685;p=1#000000

She's now my wife!

I got a Fred Bear Montana last year and have a Whisperstik Mojo under there this year (I know because I made the deals on them    :)  )

I got a 67 Grizzly last year from my wife. It helps that my good friend owns a traditional archery shop.

My wife got me a BW for Christmas back in the early 90s.

She and my son got me another BW for my birthday a couple years ago. Both times I did not have a clue.

I am pretty sure there will be a long, skinny box under the tree come Christmas morning. I have done just the right amount of hinting and casual discussion about a Martin Savannah to allow enough details to get the exact draw weight etc that I am looking for. We will see...plus I knocked her gift outta the park this year with a Jared Pandora braclet..she already opened it and even cried a little...just like the commercial! That should have sealed the deal or at least get me a "kitchen pass" to buy one or build some insanely expensive custom arrows  :thumbsup:

Dear Santa,

I've been a really good boy this year   :saywhat:    ;)    :rolleyes:    "[dntthnk]"      . Please talk Jason Kendall into making me a 56" Kanati LB made of tulipwood and put it under the tree!

I've given myself enough bow presents this year, so my girlfriend will see her new longbow and arrows under the tree on Sunday.  I hope she loves them.

I got my Martin Savannah!!!!! Shot some arrows that I had that were close to what I will need for it and man, what a smooth shooting bow. I cannot believe how quiet that thing is after shooting a wheelie for so long!
