Title: Greyson collection
Post by: koan on May 29, 2007, 08:19:39 pm
Im a lucky dog, stopped by to look at the Greyson collection after work today and got treated to a nice surprise! Dr. Greyson had stopped in a few days before with more goodies and I got a private veiwing before they have gotten put on display( how cool is that)? There's a Turkish style bow that defies the laws of physics, a couple of Yumi's that look exceptional, and a multitude of native(?) arrows....  it was toooo cooool....Brian

How much of his collection will they let you look through if you just drop in?  I might have to head down there for a peak.

Some people have all the luck. Might be a good time to work on that bow that has been giving you grief.  Justin

         Dr Grayson is a character, he probably has more stuff in his head than he has in his mueseum, even at 90+ years old he still dreaming up super bow and arrow concotions he wants to try out. I was really glad to see him get his well deserved place in the archery hall of fame last year. Steve
