Been crazy busy lately, been working 6 12-14 hour days a week, and haven't hardly had time to say hi to the dogs, also got a rank colt that I've been working on, I'm starting to think I should just ignore the  turkey buzzards flying around in my stomach, and climb on him and ride him out. :o ;) anyways I think I'm finally happy with my bow, just need some finishing touches and some more shooting and I'll be done.

Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

I realize  ;) some of the crew are suffering from ants in the pants but I promised the best bow possible for this trade so #3 is in the works. My recipient already has more bows than he can possibly use and I'm going to use the deadline to my advantage.

Mr. Eric Bartells gifted me a dry osage stave a couple three years ago and it was marked dry before I seasoned it on my rack. For this mans draw length it will bend in the handle and I'm thinking #3 will be the best of the bunch.

So don't get upset with me gentleman, I'm going to be shipping late but on time.

I could easily finish off #1 or #2 and ship next week but I'm not going to. Who ever has my name can hold off and wait uintil my recipient has recieved. Won't bother me a damned bit.

This is about doing the best that you can with what you have to work with and those are my intentions.
