That should get ya shooting. At some point you will need to give some thought to sealing your bow, but that can wait. Only reason I bring it up is cause Tru oil is a good product and you can get it from 3R's. There's lotsa other options out there though.

Did I miss the finished bow?
Did the Native Americans think about all this that much or just do it?
