We'll my little huntresses now have their own quivers and don't have to 'share' my quivers. Art Vincent whipped up some last minute gorgeous quivers for Ron to send along to put under the Christmas tree. Ron's known my daughters from day one and he's affectionately known as 'Uncle' Ron. The photo's don't show it real well, however Art engraved the girls initials on the hood of the quiver as well as putting the leather plate for Ron to sign.
I put together some arrows especially for the little ladies. Easton Axis 600's with 75 grain brass inserts and 230 grains of steel inserts and Grizzly broadheads. Very potent combination.
Thank you Art and Ron for your fast and beautiful work on these custom Shrew Mantis quivers.

Very nice!
Speechless!!! First class all the way. I wish Ron was my uncle. :notworthy: :notworthy: :archer2:
I was lucky as a child because my parents fostered my love of archery my entire life. The experiences and friends I accumulated over the last 60+yrs are irreplaceable.
I envy you and your daughters,

That is so cool that your two girls are into archery. I can not get them to try, they would rather see me shoot :(
You are blessed man, you are blessed. Enjoy
I was really excited about being a part of this. Girls are way to cute.

Art, thank you again for your creative hand in this. In all seriousness, my wife asked if you made purses/handbags. She was so impressed with the work and wondered how we could even take them out in the woods.
Well, Morgan (glasses) has a date with dad to hang out in the creek bottom at the farm tomorrow for a late season hunt. Temps are supposed to be in the upper 30's and compared to what we've had the last couple of weeks that's going to feel like shirt sleeve weather. Winds are supposed to be out of the southwest, so that will be perfect for the deer coming from bedding to the drops in the apple orchard at the end of the funnel.
Somewhere I've got a picture of Mary sitting on Ron's Harley at a shoot when she was 2 1/2 years old. I was hoping that wasn't a premonition of what was to come. Well, ole Uncle Ron's influence has improved. ;) Here's a picture of Mary at the Grayling MI Michigan Traditional Bowhunters shoot when she was 3 1/2 years old. Yours truly is showing her the ropes of shooting. That set the seeds for the girls shooting and of course Ron and 'Uncle' Greg from Shrewhaven lodge have been right there over the years influencing and cheering the girls on. Ron's beagle Maggie used to drag (walk) the girls around the MTB course when the adults were shooting.
