There is actually more to that caul its just on its side so i could use the bat to force more reflex. The top side just has a running flat with a sloping curve at the end to treat in reflex tips.

Sorry will, forgot to add, yes i used dry heat.

I am looking forward to putting some arrows through the chrono to see how well it performs.

Pat, you know everytime i call you for help we creat something awesome.

You're welcome Will,  I know that it looks kinda crude but it's very effective to.

Just a couple of half moon shaped scraps would help make the bend at the dips a bit more symmetrical.

Glad you like it so much Willb. I am finding myself to be partial to it also.

I did somes hooting with it yesterda at a big round hay bail. I had the arrows burrying to the fletchings and actually lost one in the bail. Cant find it. It seems to have plenty of power. But it could just be that the hay bail was an older one too. Regardless, i feel confident it will make a deer very sleepy. We shall see. I will shoot it all summer to really get a ceel for it and make another if i need to with proper modifications made to hunt with, if i decide not to hunt with this one.

Patm, i think you just gave me a neat idea for a caul.
