My son Jeffrey will be graduating from college here in a month or two. He is doing this in 3 years instead of 4 as he attended school in the summer the last two years. In addition to his classes he was a Community Leader for his dorm and earned praise for the job he was doing.
He'll be going right back this fall to get his master's degree and with his grades and the leadership he has shown, he was selected for a program they have at Baylor and as it stands right now he has about 75% of his next 4 years of school paid for! He'll find out in a couple weeks, but that could be 100%. Really proud of what he has done.
That being said I felt like he really needed something special for a graduation gift. He has been mentioning wanting a longbow so I pulled the trigger and order him a Toelke Whip one piece longbow that is 64" long with a draw weight of 52# at 28". His draw length is about 30 or a bit more so he will probably pull about 56#'s. I can't wait to get this so I can try it out! I drove up to Ronan and met with Dan Toelke who makes these bows in a shop at his house with his son Jared. He was a pleasure to deal with and I can see myself getting one of these for me!! Man they are beautiful and he does really nice work for any of you all wanting a special recurve or longbow.
