Hey Rabid get that camera back out, wanna see more pics of your bow bro. Looks pretty darn sweet from what I can see. Arrows are real nice too, now come on man get back outside in that hot arizona sun and snap some off.

Nice job, Apache! Smooth and simple. I like it!

From what I see it looks good. What kind of growth rings do you get from AZ black locust?

Thx fellas. I'll take a few more pics for you guys. AZ growth rings are pretty tight. I'll get some close-up photos of another one I'm currently working on for a fellow bowhunter. Thx for looking.

Hey RA, good to see you again!  And even better to see the bow and the arrows you have made.  'Splains why we haven't seen you around much, working on this beauty took a little time and care.  Nice work.
