New Bow and arrows
Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 10:25 pm
Fellow forum Ranger Gondian shipped me probably the best package I've ever received: a custom made long bow, some beautiful arrows and a very nice quiver, to boot.
I haven't gotten any photos taken yet, but I have a couple that Gondian sent to whet my appetite before the box shipped.
My wife, who doesn't really "get" Rangering saw the bow and said, "It's not just deadly looking, it's a work of art."
I haven't figured out where I'm going to do real target practice yet, but my back yard is big enough that I set an old, heavy-duty plastic garbage can in front of my shed, put the wood chopping block in front of that, then placed a milk jug full of water on the chopping block. I used some modern, store-bought arrows and did a couple of practice runs. My four year old son, so much a product of the digital age, said that the arrows went too fast to see and wanted to know if I could do it again, only make the arrows go slower the second time.

Glad you liked them Straelbora.
