New bow for Bunks :)
« on: June 16, 2010, 01:26:00 PM »
My daughter Nicole (Bunks is my nickname for her) and her fiancé Dave came to visit a while back and I gave him one of my longbows. He is really getting into it and my daughter has expressed an interest. The first long bow I owned was a Don Dow she tried to shoot it but it was too heavy for her. She did manage to shoot it a couple of dozen times to the point of pain and loved the bow, soooooooooooo. I had Mr. Dow put this one together for me. I've got to tell you from order time to in my hand less than two weeks!!! I found some GT Lightning arrows, striped the plastic fletch off, wrapped and feather fletched them, found a glove and belt quiver. I have an armguard to give her......I found a side plate and rest from one of my other bows that I had removed.

Specs are 58" 37@28 (she is 5'5"s and 29 years old) my baby girl  :)

They are coming to visit for father’s day. Do you think she'll like it?

Your daughter’s bow - X amount of dollars .. The look of appreciation and gratitude on your daughter’s face – Priceless!

That look alone is the best Fathers Day gift ever.. Congrats on a job well done.
