Title: I Acquired Glen Parker Arrows
Post by: longstick on May 19, 2008, 11:38:00 PM
We had our annual Glen Parker Memorial Shoot this last weekend and I won these in a raffle!
There were 3 boxes with 2 broadheads he had made by his design along with 1 fieldpoint.
In the day we used to have to mark our arrows here for identification purpose for the state but cant get a picture of his name on them.
I didnt win the shoot but after coming out with these that plaque didnt mean so much

The broadheads had a BIT of dirt on them for some reason..so I cleaned them up a bit with some 4/0 steel wool

Very nice! I once spoke with Glen at, if I remeber correctly, one of the GLLI shoots. He had a lefty longbow that I really liked, but at the time I thought it was too light........55#@28"!! I was young and stupid and thought you needed to shoot at least 65#. I  regret not buying that bow. Mike

Wow, way cool, congrats. I had some great pics of Glen and my Dad at our lease in Dilley. He was great guy and wealth of knowledge.

Thanks for posting the pics and story, Longstick.  I'm going to Quebec with the Bear Quest II in a couple of weeks and there is a Glenn Parker Timberwolf broadhead on one of my arrows.  I'm thinking it may be the first one I shoot.    :pray:
