The best trophies I can hope to acquire as a husband, father, friend or hunter are MEMORIES!
They will travel with me wherever life's path leads...

Hey Paul, I know where he can get one just like yours
Great looking bow Rod. Nothing to get in the way of learning the first steps in shooting, but 1000 times better than what most young kids start with.

Beautiful looking baby bow there mate.
My boy has been picking at me to make him one now that I've finished mine.
Maybe I'll give it a try.
