Title: Thumped one with my thunder child (thanks John Rook)
Post by: thump on April 28, 2011, 03:06:00 PM
Last month I got a call from my friend John Rook being that he's blind he called  to ask if I could take an inch off of his cedars  and  taper them for him  I said no problem .A couple of weeks later I showed up at johns with his quiver and woodies cut to size as he asked. Before I left john wanted to know how he could repay me for this favor I said being your friend was enough .But then I said john can I have one of your arrows with a Broadhead I' d like to use it this spring for turkey. John couldn't of been happier to oblige and I told him that I would return with a good story about his arrow.   (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01212.jpg)  (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01208.jpg)  (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01213-1.jpg)

Excellent work thump.  That turkey is sharp looking, but that arrow is even sharper.  Love the splicing.

The more of you or something from someone special that you can put into the hunt, the sweeter the reward.

Great success and treasured memory!!
