    Smile My Son's B-day !

    Just finished part of my son's b-day gift......Picked up a real nice set of Clear finnished Cedar arrow shafts. Just put on some green and yellow fletching and tipped em up..added a small touch in his name and two animal tracks he recognises already.

    Did up a full Dozen of these but I'm gonna hide the other half away for spares...

    These are to accompany the other Gift...I dug out my 15 lb Fibreglass bow I've had since I was seven...funny it's about the only thing I ever kept from my childhood......But man when I hold it do some Good memories come back. That Bow and Me had a hell of alot of adventures together. I picked up a new string and it actually looks good all shined up.

    My son will be 7 next week so i figured it was time to pass along my 30 year old Treasure !
    I look forward to his adventures........

    Take a kid hunting its more rewarding than shooting an animal yourself!!

    What's wrong with that?
    Now that's one thoughtful Dad!
    Custom arrows for sure - watch he doesn't take one to school for Show & Tell even if he might want to (I can see me doing it).

    I think that Joshua will have a very nice birthday.
    15lb. fiberglass bow congers up childhood images for me too. Don't know where my bow got to, but I guess I can be forgiven since that was 50 years ago.

    Those arrows look great Will. Good job on the 'personal touches' that's what makes them special.
