Thats a real cool find. Thats a neat quiver.

Danny,
 Nice find but you will have to expand the basement to keep all the bows you're finding these days. Kind of addicting. The history is what is so cool to me-guess you've figured that out as well. Best to all the "boys".
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.
