I've got a great wife!! Pics added!
« on: April 26, 2007, 09:17:00 PM »
Well my anniversary gift I told you about back in April (Rose Oak - King Pather)finally arrived yesterday! Brandon did an awsome job and I couldn't be happier.  Craftsmanship is top notch, it is a real looker. Only shot it a couple times so far and it was right on. It has the best grip I have ever felt. Plan to break it in proper this weekend.  As promised, here are some pics.  Brandon sent them when it was ready to ship.  It is 62" and 51#@28".  Riser is cocobolo with pierce points and bocote accent stripe. Limbs are bocote. Very similar to the one he has on his web site.  I'm pumped!

Original Post:
I come home from work last night with a big bouquet of roses and a card for my wife on our 15th wedding anniversary.  She whips out a wrapped package. I open it up and find a bow sock from Rose Oak Bows, a note from Brandon congratulating me on our anniversary and an order form with a paid in full credit for a new bow.  He says it will be ready June 30th, I just have to contact him with all my choices and specs.  My wife saw me drooling over his bows one evening, she made note of the name and took it from there.  I was totally taken off guard.  She said it made her day just to see the smile that broke out on my face. I'm a blessed man - I can't wait, I've heard great things about Brandon's bows.

You are a lucky man. To find the one you have stayed with that long and one that would do that for you. Congrats on the new bow and the 15 yrs!

That's a great surprise...I'm keeping my wife as well.  She's been saving for 3 years for my 20th anniversary present.  I just booked my African safari for August 2008.  Only 16 months!  Can't wait for our 30th!  Congrats on 15 great years, here's to many more.

Thanks guys, God was definitely looking after me when he brought her to me.
My gift to her is a weekend in Chicago to take in the Broadway show "WICKED" She has wanted to see it for quite some time, but would never spend the money on herself (pricey tickets!). She has always been like that-everything for the family never herself. I'm also getting her wedding band redone, she has wore it thin and is afraid she will loose the diamond.

Congrats on the Anniversary.  Sounds like you know how to make each other happy.  Enjoy the bow and the trip to Chicago...

Congrats on both the bow and your anniversary.  I keep dropping hint to my wife but I think she is ignoring me on purpose.

should we ask what your wife got?   :bigsmyl:  

please don't tell us you did like Jeff Foxworthy and took her to McDonalds drive thru, telling them to "biggie size those fries for the little woman, its our anniversary!" did ya??
