I haven't received a bow for Christmas but I did get one from my girlfriend for our one year anniversary. She conspired with my Dad and got me a 77 Bear Kodiak Hunter that I'd been watching on the auction site.

Here it is:  http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=094685;p=1#000000

She's now my wife!

I got a Fred Bear Montana last year and have a Whisperstik Mojo under there this year (I know because I made the deals on them    :)  )

I got a 67 Grizzly last year from my wife. It helps that my good friend owns a traditional archery shop.

My wife got me a BW for Christmas back in the early 90s.

She and my son got me another BW for my birthday a couple years ago. Both times I did not have a clue.

I am pretty sure there will be a long, skinny box under the tree come Christmas morning. I have done just the right amount of hinting and casual discussion about a Martin Savannah to allow enough details to get the exact draw weight etc that I am looking for. We will see...plus I knocked her gift outta the park this year with a Jared Pandora braclet..she already opened it and even cried a little...just like the commercial! That should have sealed the deal or at least get me a "kitchen pass" to buy one or build some insanely expensive custom arrows  :thumbsup:

I've given myself enough bow presents this year, so my girlfriend will see her new longbow and arrows under the tree on Sunday.  I hope she loves them.

I got my Martin Savannah!!!!! Shot some arrows that I had that were close to what I will need for it and man, what a smooth shooting bow. I cannot believe how quiet that thing is after shooting a wheelie for so long!
