I have a Black Swan I call Spooky. She is all black and the quietest bow I've ever owned. I've owned a few bows too.

G&L 3PC. longbow named "OL' UG" because it is the ugliest bow ever, but it's a killer.

3 PC. Acadian Treestick named "Cooter" because it was given to me by the Coots family.

When I get my first custom bow built I am going to have it named "The Final Word". Since my last name is Word I thought it would be fitting.

I finally named a one of my selfbows.  Osage with some twist that I couldn't totally get out.  Named her,  "Twisted Sister".

I still own a wheelie bow that hasen't been used in so long that it my have rusted away by now; poor thing never had a name. But for some reason I name every bow I build and hunt with. Got one named "Ltl Rick" after my friend that cut me a hickory off his property and brought it to me at Church. Another one named Sandy after his wife that laughed at us. Been hunting with "Ely"; this bow was named after my 2 year old grandson that had to help me work on it. Then there is "Triple Try"; the laminated longbow that I had to saw apart and reglue three times to get the poundage down. Working on "Copperstrike" right now, got some copperhead skins to cover it with. O-ya; can't forget "Paulette's Diamond" after my understanding wife who say's nothing even though I have spent enough money on this addiction to buy her a diamond! (And many more) Yes; you just gotta name your bow, gives it character.
