Red Bird memorial bow went hunting
« on: September 28, 2016, 11:33:00 PM »
Jim Belcher of Sky Archery is making some of my Shrew bows now and he made a Red Bird bow in honor of my wife Nancy, (Red Bird) who passed away last month. I picked it up today and I'll be taking it to my Shrew Haven deer camp in a couple of weeks.

Red Bird will be hunting with me again

Paul Jalon of Elite Arrows is making a set of Red Bird arrows for everyone in camp (7 men) Each man will have his initials on his arrows.

Nice looking set up.
Very touching sentiment.
