Kip, your wife will get over it, its just the initial shock. Wait till you have a target set up in your basement, you pick the bow up everytime by and shoot a couple, you have leather, broadheads, quivers, arrows, paint scattered all over, and partly finished shafts hanging from the ceiling, she will just walk by, shake her head, and smile. We have all been through it. The hardest part for you now is the wait. Tell Chad to hurry up the process and you can pick that bow up at KK this April. Hope to see you there. We have to do another hunt sometime, that moose hunt was a blast. John
