Title: KURTS BOWRACK
Post by: wadde on July 14, 2009, 10:44:00 PM
I received the bow rack that Kurt made today that I won. What an awesome piece. Kurt you did good. It is too cool. I took some pics without and with a few bows hung on it. I will have pics when Kurt posts them for me after I send them to him. I would like to play this forward in some way but will wait for Kurt's response. Looks like this old grizzly could even be shot if it got tired of holding bows. Kurt it is a great piece of work and will be holdng some vintage beauties. Thanks again.

Glad you like it Steve
and playing it forward so to speak is a great idea.

This give away was for me finally quitting cigs.
Pack and half a day for 20 yrs and this is 6 months off the coffin nails.

That is a very cool rack. Kurt sent me some pics a while back.

Congrats Kurt on staying quit. 6 months is a mile stone some never reach. Well done!!

Awesome idea Kurt...looks great! Gives a whole new meaning to the term "Wallhanger"!    :notworthy:  

Exra congrats on the REAL accomplishment, though-    :clapper:  Quite possibly the best investment in your future you could make!

Been there, done that, and still NOT doing it myself. (over 23 years now!) Wait until you start REALLY tasting yer food!!    :jumper:

You guys are good. Rainman and Trap are correct with the first being a 59 kodiak,recently returned from the Doc. the second a red wing hunter 52", the third a wing red wing pro slimline and the last with the hole in the riser a groves. I thought maybe a Sanders myself was not sure. Migra Bill nailed the fourth a dreamcatcher by Martin. That only leaves the three in front of the Groves # 5, 6, and 7. The longbow is not a Shakespeare. There are no Pearsons. No Howatts.
