"Ode to my Wesley"
« on: August 12, 2018, 01:12:19 AM »
"Ode to my Wesley"

She has an ebony riser
Red and black glass
66" take down
With a sleeve made of brass
Five lams of bamboo
She is a sight to behold
Silver inlaid buck
Jumping and bold
There's a slight string follow
And her limbs are narrow
Though she looks sweet
She can fling a mean arrow
Light in the hand
She's all full of power
And when her owner would shoot her
He felt a little like Howard
In his minds eye
He could "Hit 'em like Howard"

Nice bow, nicely described! I think that's my next bow - a takedown HH. My main bow at present is a Big Five.

 :thumbsup: cool
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
