HA, suckered another guy!!!
« on: May 20, 2010, 09:34:00 PM »
Went to a little 15 target 3d shoot with a buddy from high school.  He was/is a wheelie shooter.  He show considerable interest in my recurve, said he always wanted to hunt with one, and he has a Ben Pearson Puma at his house, dust covered, no string.  Since he knows I make my own strings he asked if i would make one for him, I told him I didnt have to because I already had one made up for a 62" bow:) .  So I got some spark, just need to feed the flame   :bigsmyl:

That's great next thing you know he'll order a custom bow from a bowyer before I place my order then put me behind another spot. Longer down the waiting list why can't everyone just keep to themselves and tell them that traditional archery is difficult that the bows are heavy and are always coming out of time and such. Guys like you is the reason Cedar shafts and Zwickey broadheads prices skyrocket.
But for real you got to love that sparkle in there eyes like a kid at Christmas. Brian

sorry for the delay brian, lol.  I dont think he will order a custom bow just yet, I got him talked into a cheaper factory bow to start with, just to see if he likes it.
