Great to have you down in the area. Leon is a great guy that makes a great bow. If you are like others, you will enjoy shooting one.

Gettysburg is a truly amazing site to visit.  Being only 30 miles away or so i have been there numerous times.  It is great that you shared that hallowed ground with your dad and youngest son.

Gettysburg and Bows... What a trip.. Glad You had a Great time with Your Dad & Son...

You should try and make it to Gettysburg the weekend of The 4th of July. They reenact the Battle.

I made that same trip about 10 years ago.My wife now and I took 4 days but I picked up a bow I had ordered earlier from Leon.
 Gettysburg was really interesting but kind of a weird feeling which I can't describe.We where there the week-end before the re-enactment.
