New Schafer Silvertip Semper Fi Dad
« on: February 10, 2008, 07:40:00 PM »
Beth,
Just sent me these pictures and told me I'll have this bow by Thursday. Let me say that Beth and Dave are OUTSTANDING people and were an absolute pleasure to work with. My Father made a career out of The United States Marine Corps, retiring with 21 yrs of service. We lost the "GUNNY" to cancer this July it will be three years. I dedicated this bow to my Father, Dave & Beth did him proud. SEMPER FI DAD - OOH RAH -

What an absolutely stunning bow!  Your father would be very proud of what you've done in his memory.  Your hunts with this bow will be very special.  Is that Macasser with sheephorn?

The red acccent stripe is reminiscent of the Blood Stripe worn by Marine NCO's and officers.  Not sure if you planned it that way or not, but either way, a beautiful bow and one your father would approve of I'm sure. Tim
