He wanted a bow that shoots an arrow faster than Verlander can throw a ball. Major league and major cool.

That's Awsome Ron! Glad he's a trad shooter and a Detroit Tiger. Reminds me of the story Jerry Brumm was telling me about Travis Fryman and Chad Curtis stopping by his shop and walking out with a couple of bows. GO TIGERS!
