Title: Starter Bow give away....the winner is.......
Post by: Lewis Brookshire III on November 22, 2008, 01:51:00 PM
I have a bow that doesnt get any use that would be great for a beginner. Its a Right Handed 56" Browning wasp 40@28". Its not that great looking of a bow (Dents/dings) but the limbs are straight and it shoots great.

It was given to me by a fellow trad ganger (Sticshooter) for my wife when she had a wild hair to learn. Well she lost interest real quick and finally told me that she didnt like shooting as much as she thought she would and wasnt going to keep it up.  So I should give it away to some one who can use it instead of it hanging on the rack.

If you know someone who can use it put your name in the hat and I will draw Thanksgiving night at 9pm Est.

Please put my name in.  A friends 13 year old son has been hunting with me the past two seasons.  and every time he is at my house he picks up one of my bows and heads to the back yard to shoot it.  Jeffery is his name.  Tonight he killed his first deer with a rifle.

Thanks for offering this bow up.

I have a young fella up here that I lent a longbow to while my son is away. He will be wanting it when he comes back.

It would be perfect for this young fella. We can't get any decent bows around here so we by online for EVERYTHING.

Travis bought one (using his own money from working at the grocery store and doing bottle drives)before meeting me and he got screwed. The bow de-laminated and the person wouldn't take it back......I was pissed when I heard about it. He over charged him too and gave him a whole bunch of mismatched arroews and some that were broken (dangerous)

He was real down so I lent him my son's and it has re-kindled a flame he has deep in his heart. I have taken him out hunting with it and he has shot many gophers and grouse and ptarmigan.

I would love to just give him the bow (cost me $650.00) but it's my sons and I bought it for him (kind of a keep sake too - if you know what I mean).

I will pay the frieght if it works out.

Thanks for considering my young friend Travis Rivest of the Yukon.

My wife's first cousin has a son (Troy) and he is 13 years old.  His father passed away when he was only 5.  Troy likes the outdoors, but really doesn't get much of a chance to experience the things that I did growing up with his dad being gone.  Please put him in for the drawing.  He has been asking his mother if she would get him one so he could shoot with me.  If he were to win, I'll pay the shipping.

Wow!  I've been away from the computer for a day or so.  The wife and I are just getting back from our Thanksgiving trip of taking the kids to see their grandparents.  Troy is visiting with us today, and will be so happy to get the bow.  What a great surprize it will be for him.  Thanks for donating the bow Lewis, and thanks to everyone else for the well wishes.  This will be a big change in the life of a young boy.    :)
