That is a great story. It is wonderful when something so good happens unexpectedly. I am glad you got your bow back and that it is still functional.

Good stuff. You didn't say what condition it was in. Did you have to refinish it or anything like that?

Tony,

What a tremendous and miraculous story. It is awesome that you got the bow back and even more awesome that you were able to get it into hunting shape again. I strongly suspect that very special doe will not be the last to feel the sting of your Yellow Jacket!

Congrats!     :clapper:
