Title: New RER for Kayla
Post by: Golden Hawk on May 12, 2007, 06:28:00 PM
Guys had to post the pics of my Daughter and her new RER Arroyo. We got it today at the Bigfoot Archers shoot in Lake Geneva, WI. I had it made for her 58" 32@28 Bubble Gum Actionwood riser actionboo cores,and black glass. She absolutely loves the bow and I'll bet she'll shoot more often now.

Good pick on the color! Talked to RER guys in Tenn. last weekend He had a Vortex made with the same actionwood if I would have brought enough cash it would made the ride home with me for my daughter. Probably order her one for her birthday in Dec. . Good job Dad.

Very nice Leroy.  I'm sure she shoots as well as I do. I almost went with the Bubble Gum riser for my new Arroyo as well;) Well, maybe not.

Hey Leroy. Have you made up some new matching arrows for that Pink Beauty yet? I've got 4 dozen full length, Hot Pink feathers that are yours if you want them. Just PM your mailing address and they will be on the way on Monday.
They are left hand feathers.
Can't stand to look at them any longer as they are hurting my eyes!!!

Just remember, once you get them there is no returning them;) Those things were keeping me awake at night from the pinkish glow coming from the corner of the room!!!
Title: Re: New RER for Kayla
Post by: Golden Hawk on May 12, 2007, 10:57:00 PM
I'll put them in a steel box and bury them until I fletch her arrows. LOL!

That is an awesome looking bow. Good looking kid too. Must get her looks from her mother. I don't care for the alternating colors in the riser but if they made it just pink or just purple i would have to buy one. What can i say, i'm just big girl!  :wavey:

I would do it! I just love those bright colors!

Ok deal you can shoot Kayla's bow on the course at Cloverdale! LOL!

Post by: Scott S. on May 13, 2007, 11:18:00 PM
I was thinking Dad needs one to match!
Title: Re: New RER for Kayla
Post by: cjones on May 13, 2007, 11:22:00 PM
DEAL!! I need to find some hot pink spandex to match the bow!
Title: Re: New RER for Kayla
Post by: Bucksnort101 on May 13, 2007, 11:34:00 PM
I don't know Chad Jones, but I bet I wouldn't want to see him in hot pink spandex  "[dntthnk]"  

Leroy, be shure to bid on that Pink arm guard over on the St. Judes auction page. Looks like a nice match for the bow.

Purty bow for a purty girl!

Is she going to be with you at the Iowa Traditional Bowhunters Rendezvous?  My little girl would get a kick out of seeing a cool teenage girl shooting that bow!
Title: Re: New RER for Kayla
Post by: Golden Hawk on May 14, 2007, 08:47:00 AM
I'm not sure if she'll be with me there or not Tim. I'll let you know when I find out.

That's a wild looking shelf window.  It looks like it kicks back a lot farther than the grip area.  Hadn't seen one like that before.  Neat colors for a girl (or Chad).

I'mnot familar with RER do they have a website my daughter would love that color she is already the only little girl up here who shoots purple arrows with purlple armguard and has already requested a purple bow and until now had no idea where to find one. Good on you for encouraging your daughter to shoot. One of my greatest joys is shooting my bow with my kids

Leroy, Good seeing you at the Bigfoot shoot. I am very glad your daughter likes her bow. I was hoping to see it before you guys left and am glad I got to see the pix here.

Congrats!

Bill, Good seeing you also and thanks so much for letting me shoot that fine Vortex of yours. I loved the grip. Now I really cam't wait for mine to be done.

stykbow, The RER website is in the sponsors list. rerbows.com Check it out and give them a call. Tell them you want the Bubblegum riser wood.

herkimerhunter, My daughter has been wanting a bow like that since she saw the first T/D recurve Kevin made like that.
