Got It!
« on: May 07, 2017, 08:42:00 PM »
Got my new Mike Treadaway Black Forrest longbow.  Picked it up at the TN Classic this weekend.  I'd post pics, but don't know how and they don't begin to do it justice. Already named it.  Viagra.  Putting a light blue string on it.

Probably not an insult to the bow or bowyer, rather a device to give him a rise!

Nice bows, congrats, but if you were going to give the bow a more feminine gender, I think Lavitra would be a better name.

Congrats! Mike makes a great bow. I just got my Black Swamp in March, got back on Mike's list for a Black Forest.

Lol--guess you'd have to see it to get the name.  This bow is a work of art...not just beautiful wood and craftsmanship, but arrow inlays in the limbs, 45's in the riser, horn tips, hand rubbed finish...it had that "effect" on everyone that saw it/picked it up.  Of course it's not all about looks either...shoots like a dream.

Ooh! That would be funny if the string matched the color of the pill, whatever it is.

Just in case you change your mind about that blue, I found this on the web as a color guide.

I don't know how to post pics.  Got some on the way though.

Killy, the string will be BCY's "electric blue".  It's a bright light blue--perfect match.

Nice! I think mine has the same center stripe with the 45s... satinwood and bloodwood.
