Ok guys this is what Ive been up to...........My wife told me the other day about one of her co workers that is raising her own kids along with her dead brothers kids. The brothers boy has heart problems and a blood disorder.anyway befor his dad died he bought him a 3D deer target and was gonna teach him to bow hunt. Telling me how she works 2 jobs trying to keep things togeather and such. The boys Bday was thur. and all he wanted was a bow.They could not afford to get him one.He also shoots everyday with a fiberglass rod with a string tied to it. So today I sent a text to a friend on a hunting forum. Anyway to make a long story short.after several text messages he calls me.A bow company started production when there owner heard about this and started a build and will be working late tonite to have it ready for them to drive it to tampa to my friend.then I will meet him on sunday to pick up bow and take it to the boy on monday. He is an awsome guy that can get things done. Some here may know him,but Im leaving names out cuz I know how things can go and people wanting things. Ill leave it up to him if he wants to put his name to his GREAT DEED for a young up comming bow hunter. keep them in the woods and off the streets

OK, today was the day. He was so shocked he didnt say hardly anything except a bunch of smiles. Later on his mom called and said he hasnt shut up about the bow yet.Wouldnt let anybody else hold it. Stopped up a jerrys Archery on the way up and seen Shane. He gave a drop away rest and installed the loop. He also said for the young guy to bring it to him when ready to get it set up and he would me more than glad to help him out. Lots of great people out there willing to help out a young guy.
