That thing will spit a mean arra too!  It was fast at Moontree.  Good job Bill!

Right over the target on the long shot :(

Bill is a good shot, just ribbing him a bit :D

No problem Tracy,  I can dish it out,  ;)  I'd better be able to take it.  :)

That turned out awesome Bill.  I live the look of the hooks.  Great job.  It's neat when a bow has so many people in the materials, makes for a great story.  Great job again.

I've been watching this one from the start Bill. You did a real nice job man. I wish I could make a handle wrap look that nice.
