Shapeshifter,

I turn 50 next May, but with the waiting period on some customs, I figured I'd have to order this year to get it, also factoring in the cost.  I'm saving again, and might be able to swing one by next year, but I'm not really obsessing over it.  we still have my oldest son's wedding this sept, and we're helping them out financially a little.

I'll get some pics of Josiah and his new bow here pretty soon.  Getting ready for opening of trout season here, and turkey just around the corner.

That was a great thing you did for your son.  After he shoots  and looks at you, the smile will be, thanks dad.

Thanks all!  We went to a trad shoot this weekend, so I thought I'd include a picture of Josiah with his new bow.  He's shooting it better than I do with my bow, and is enjoying it alot.  It was well worth it !

I'll second Mickey's sentiments, Lee.  Way to be a Dad!  That's how we make good hunting partners.  :thumbsup:

Way to go Lee. The look on his face is worth more than a new bow anyday.

The joy of a father.  The young man has a cool name also.  I had two tradgang brothers give me two bows for my little girls, unbelievably generous.  The joy I get watching them shoot and chase the rabbits and pigs.  Thanks Lee for the example.  God bless

Thanks, guys!  I'm sure any dad would do the same.
It was a no brainer, really!  I just wish the kid wouldn't outshoot me after having it for only a week.  He shows no mercy, either!
