Hey folks,
My son and I were out throwing the hawk today, when low and behold my wife came out. After watching us for a while she gave it a few tosses. Then later in the day, while I was outside visiting with my parents, I get my dad to throw a LOT! and even my mom too! Needless to say that is quite a feat. My father, who is a helicopter pilot and a Vietnam Vet is very interested in hawks. He is even going to check some of his war pics to see if he can find any pics of originals. He said that he didn't remember coming into contact with anyone that had one, but that was a long time ago. You know its a good product when it interests 3 generations in one afternoon.
BTW, I am still not getting this thing as sharp as I want it, but I am getting closer. I guess practice makes perfect. My hawk really has a lot of character marks now, but after 100s of throws and a bunch of chopping it still good as new (except the finish) so if you are on the fence about this hawk as a user..don't be. It's tough as hell!
