Happy Valentines day ME (johns wife)
« on: February 18, 2010, 12:59:25 am »
Hi all, this is Blacktails wife, For Valentines day, I didnt get a diamond necklace, a box of chocolates, nor a dozen roses, BUT what I did get was worth WAY more to me. My hubby made me this, and modeling my NEW bow is my lovely hubby. It is Vine Maple with rattlesnake skin. It is an 1 1/2 at fade outs, tapers to 1/2 tips, it is 60 inches ntn, and 5 inch brace height, weighing in at 50 lbs. We have not put the handle on yet but I couldnt wait to show you all yet. I put the string wrap on and I had no idea it was for me :) Keenen, your wife and I are pretty lucky gals to have such great hubbies! THANK YOU BLACKTAIL!
