My one and only is named "Destiny"

RC posted:  "a Hill bow named "Blue Sky" after my favorite Alman Brothers song. You gotta be old to know it.lol."  

A true classic, RC and great going down the road music by them fellers!  I work with a guy whose Dad and Dickie Betts used to jam together.  What a time that had to be.  His last name is Jennings and he had a famous relative in the music business.   ;)

I don't name my bows but my girlfirend called my bow Ms. Fancy one day & it has stuck. There are jealousy issues between the two of them that I haven't quite worked out... so I just keep them seperated.

I have 3 bows I use regularly.

1st custom bow:

"Pop"

Big river long bow made with my father present and reintroduced him to trad archery. He used it for a month and promptly ordered one for himself.

2. 68" Big River, all black with a red stripe:
"Ravenous"

named after I no sooner stated my bow needed a name and a raven overhead started squaking.


3. G&L Mantis
"Prayer"

play on words as one who preys and sending a message upstairs.

I have one that I made from an ugly, marginal, osage core.  Bamboo-backed.  I made it to shoot from a ground blind-short for me.  I named it the "Blind Sow".  The Blind Sow had killed a deer and a turkey so she is looking better.

Owlbait, that mark in your bow may signal a weak spot and may break causing you injury. Please send it to me, so that I may try to shoot it till it breaks and save you serious trouble!
