Thanks Steve. No now today sadly. Maybe since it's Monday the tracking finally updated. Maybe tomorrow.

Just heightens the anticipation (durn it - LOL)

darn weekend mail people and being to lazy to update my tracking. I know it cant possiably still be in the same state. Im antsy for my bow. i have so many plans for it. I want to clean it and see if i have any fabric big enough to make a soft case for it and stuff like that! but i need it to measure it!

*pouts* oh well. patience is a virtue right?

[Siloutemirage]

Crossing my fingers for today. I'm having serious wanderlust right now. I want to be somewhere pretty and full of nature. Not in a store room filled with boxes and text books and me doing all the heavy lifting.  :(  

I shouldn't complain. At least I still have this job. Don't know for how long though.

Boy it's dreary out but I bet it would be nice for some target shooting. Not sunny.

i know im sad! i think im going to get rained out again!!!!  :(  me and my boy really want to go on thursday. i wish the bass pro had an actual range and not just a place to sight bows.... wonder how much it would cost to run an indoor range?

[swampdrummer]

Think insurance would be a killer.... Google archery shops naples fl and see what you find. Split oak might have a range.

Or just see how far you can shoot in your house! Then read the thread about what have you shot accidently!  :p

[Siloutemirage]

Split oak no longer has a range. Gues Naples is opposed to "fire arms" because there are no gun ranges in Naples either. They seem to shut everything down. If it's not pristine and chic they don't want it. I'm sure we have tourists that like to shoot just as much as the locals!

I wonder if it was pitched from an Olympic sport side of things if it would be favored more. Hmmm... We have lots of tennis and golf championships here, why not archery?

[Siloutemirage]

argh! USPS is being unusually slow this week. still no bow... if its not in by tomorrow im gonna start worrying! i want my bow home darn it!

[swampdrummer]

arrgh is right! Always tommorow!

i feel for you girl.the waiting is the hardest part.when my first custom black widow came in the mail,i was at work with a long day ahead of me.she called me and told me it had arrived.i had to stay at work the rest of the day knowing it was at my house.i had already waited 7 weeks for it to be made.talk about a long day at work.i hope yours gets there soon,steve

[Siloutemirage]

it makes me want to cry! (not really but it seriously bummed me) out to come home to no tube no nothing. i want to try and make some things for it, but i need "it" to do it. im not sure how well i trust the measurements i find online for a recurve bag... and whether my wheelie arrows are a good base to use for a home made quiver. im frustrated. i feel like ive wasted good time.

[Mudd]

Hang tough lady!!

I know what it's like and I feel for you.

The good news is you won't even remember this the second you lay your hands on the bow.

God bless,Mudd
