Title: a warm thanks - gifted with arrows!!
Post by: sadiejane on March 22, 2011, 12:39:10 pm

just had to let ya'll know
(and i know many of you know this already)
what a warm, kind and generous man, hillbilly61 is.
wanted to publicly thank him for his wonderful gift.
a few weeks ago he posted pix of some lovely arrows he made for his son.
i complimented him on them, because i thought they were exceptional.
he offered to make me a few and i took him up on it.
yesterday i received a long triangular box in the mail.
had a feeling it was hillbilly61s arrows.
to my surprise there were more than a few, he sent me a dozen!!

i will say, ive given arrows out before, but i hate it!  lol.  i worry about them so much, it takes me forever to get them out!  i always have to make sure they are done right.  mine, i get them pretty close and shoot them, cause im rough on them! lol

this is with out a doubt the best board on the net and  very  nice arrows and a salute to  hillbilly  you sir are a perfect example of what a caring traditional bowman should be and there are many  here that also  fill those shoes also
