I would not have a bow that I could not shoot standing up.... just funnin'    That is one very fine little bow. Its amazing how little osage it takes to make a great bow. You did good and I'm betting the other two are gonna be just a cool. Looking forward to seeing them.

Nice work there.  I'd also like to make a matching set for my dad, brother and I.  Look forward to seeing the other two.

One more thing to say.......

Your brother has the look a 100 year old hunter in his eye.
From me........That is one Hell of a compliment.

For what it's worth...

God Bless
