Yes. I'll think I'm going to modify the handle. Thanks. :-)

Love your reproduction bow Bowman. Your string on the upper nock should be pulled through the loop so that it is more secure. I've attached a photo to show what I mean.  Curtis

  ;D Thanks for the advice. I make a loop. I think the original drawing is equipped with that sort of a string. Thanks. The arrows are made of 8mm. pine. Turkey trueflight and field points. I will make some new arrows for the bow later. With wild turkey feathers and maybe some hawk feathers.
