Gents,
I got a good tickle out of this, thought some of you could relate.

Back in June I was blessed to marry the woman of my dreams.  Because this is a very busy time of year for both of us we decided to wait a couple months to take the honeymoon.  Well the time has come and we will be off to the Florida Keys early Monday morning.  I RARELY wear shorts.  I wear them so infrequently in fact that my bride insisted that we go buy me a couple new pairs before leaving for the beachy paradise.  So into the dressing room I went to try out my new short britches.

When I emerged for final inspection my wife burst into laughter....uncontrollable, hysterical laughter.  What?? Well....I have been doing a lot of broadhead sharpening lately.  My legs, besides being as pale as a snakes belly, are covered in little bald spots where I have been testing my heads upon completion.  I must admit, I look pretty goofy in shorts.  With tears of laughter runnin down her cheeks my wife said "I can't take you anywhere".  

Just a quick little goofy tale I thought you guys may enjoy.

Shoot straight,

Jake

If you think the broad heads are really sharp, suggest your new wife shave her legs with them. I can't laugh very much, because I look pretty silly in shorts also. At my age, though, I have gotten used to looking goofy, so that is not a personal problem. Over time, your wife will get used to your look in shorts, including the bald spots - at least mine did. Enjoy your trip!

hahahaha! I have the same affliction. Arms and legs both. I mean, you gotta make sure it's sharp at least 4 times, right?

Lets see...you "rarely" wear shorts, but your legs are shaved in blotches from testing the keen edge on your broadheads?...?

So you are often at home in your underwear sharpening heads?

now THIS is cool!

I do the same thing!
