Luke's graduation Blacktail
« on: June 05, 2010, 10:22:00 AM »
Next week is my youngest son Luke's 18th birthday and high school graduation. I ordered this bow from Norm last spring and it arrived yesterday just in time. The bow 64" 55# @ 28 and is Oregon Myrtle and Bolivian Rosewood.  I also made him some doug fir arrows to go along with the bow. I had the bow and arrows laying on his bed when he came home from his final day of school Friday. The look on his face is something I'll never forget!    :)

Here's a few pics. He had to work last evening, so I will try to get some pics of him with it later today.

Ron, that is beautiful.  The bow and arrows look awesome too.  Luke is a very lucky young man, and not just because he received a wonderful bow.  Sounds like he's been blessed for about 18 years now   ;)
