I got a buddy that is a pro tattoo artist.  He's been featured in several trade magazine articles, so he's a bit above par when it comes to skill levels.  Every time he sees my flawless milky white skin, he cries a little.  Poor guy, all I ever do is tease him.

At work we tell guys without tattoos that they still have their baby skin  ;D

I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Doesn't the arrow look disproportional  if you measure the fletchings ?

Anyway, not a fan of tattoos , I prefer to not modify my body in any way.. That's just me.

The arrow looks pretty sick and I like the placement. I've still not ventured into any tattoos that are visible apart from being shirtless but I really like that one. I have been mulling over a bow and arrow set on my right shoulder for about 3 years and am glad I waited now that I am getting into selfbows.. I might have had fiberglass tattooed on!! I have found a little to my surprise that I really don't regret any I have gotten as they really do chronicle where you were at and the mindset you were in at that particular stage in life. I definitely second the being hasty part though.. Emotions and inspiration even come and go like the waves; my wife has zero interest in getting one ever. Everyones got their own tastes that's for sure.

Just this past January I did. See what happens when you let the kids boss you around.
I guess the tough guy image is blown  :P

Most people either love or hate tattoos. I love em, some of criticisms from people who have never got one are hilarious.

I have lots of tattoos. The more you get the less significant a single tattoo one is.  I love a well done tattoo, that arrow looks cool. I only have one archery related piece, but I'd love more.

Tracker, congrats on your new work.

JW, I agree. I have several and all but 2 are now "repaired" covered from when I was young and they were "cheap" One is what you just saw and the other is a bulldog that was supposed to be a bison. Go figure?

Brendan and WizG, Yeah this one has the most meaning since they each drew their parts and letters and Aidan has an arrow dotting his I  8)

Have to wait and see what the teenage version will say

That is the coolest tattoo Dubois! My sons turning 3 this month and I've already told him he gets my left calf. I was thinking birthday and something meaningful but letting him draw it will be way more fun! Except it'll be a train or paw patrol probably... I'm glad someone else mentioned the fletchings, they do look a little long, but it's not perfect and neither am I or my own arrows so that makes it perfect. I'm hoping when I grow up I still love my tattoos, a cover up on my shoulder would just be a giant black hole haha
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

Hey, if anyone gives you crap about the long fletchings just tell them it's a Manchu arrow, lol.

I have a band of circle hooks, on one leg, and Tenkara in Japanese on the other. I kinda like fishing.
