The bow, a 1958 Kodiak was just fine, but I think I will continue to send mine out the old fashioned way! LOL!

Was this that funny looking walking stick my mailman used last week?

(Wow - I heard of bubinga, but a bubblewrap riser is a collectors item. I guess old Fred got the idea with his bubblehead razorheads.)
