Title: Two more hours...( now with pics)
Post by: agross1 on March 06, 2013, 11:04:00 AM
Until a new to me bow arrives.    I have been wanting one of these for years.   And soon, not soon enough, I will be greeting my mail lady with open arms .

I've been known to stalk the UPS driver in search of a bow    :laughing:

Sounds like a pretty special bow! You do realize that pics are in order. Keep us informed, i love it when someone gets a new toy.    :goldtooth:

Of all days for the mail to be late!  I'm not even gonna tell you guys how many times I've peeked down the road.   I'm not sure how many more times I can sweep the garage.

I had that experience last late summer...of course, everyone else's bow that shipped near mine, got to the South, NY, everywhere much earlier than me.

I think that whole "bow in shipment" is related to that old adage, "Watch Pot-never boils" or something!    :knothead:  

You know these guys will be beating on you if you don't share pics and a story when it comes!

Enjoy the moment! Carly Simon's song "Anticipation" comes to mind!  :)

Maybe the mail lady does not wish to be greeted "with open arms" and is delaying that as long as possible.   :biglaugh:

I'm lucky.  My bowyer lives just about an hour from me.  When he calls I just jump in the truck and pick it up.  Just have to make sure that I don't get caught speeding!

Sorry,   She is here, and I couldn't be happier with a used bow.   It is so hard not to run out back and shoot but temps have been in the low 30's here.    things are a little hectic around here with an almost 3 year old and almost one year old twins.  I will take some pics tomorrow .  I'm not gonna lie I am terrible with posting pics , so I might have to rely on a little help from somebody.   Man I can't wait to shoot this thing.

Ok,  I need to call in a favor.  I have some photos, but posting them and me don't get along.  So if there is anyone that is bored or wants to help me out a bit, it would be greatly appreciated.   Andy

Very, very nice. I don't usually comment on these threads nor do I love recurves but if I ever buy another... it'd have to be a tip w/ those sweet camo limbs. Congrats, you've got a beauty there.

Nice!
I used to wonder why people liked those old school camo limbs, but somehow they have grown on me and now I want me some!

Nice bow! Glad you found one. I will be home shooting mine as soon as I get out of the sandbox (March 18th) we almost have matching Silvertips!

Thanks everyone,   Can't wait to actually get some time and good weather to fling some arrows.  Thanks to all those who helped me and thanks David for passing on this great bow to me.  Wanted one of these since I first discovered traditional archery.
