It’s a thumper right now Del. I don’t know if it will hold up or take a lot of set. That’s probably the big question. I think it is pretty stressed, but so far it is holding up okay.

Welcome back BJ.  Dave is definitely a good to have for a younger brother.  It was great meeting you as well.  That bow just needs a little weight taken off and hunted.  I know that you will do both well.  Stay warm.   :OK
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...

Thanks Bob. Was great meeting you and shooting with you in your pole barn. Nice setup for sure.

Dave is a good younger brother. If I was a youngster, he’d probably be an even better older brother.

Lots of good people here. And lots I would love to see come back again.

Thank you Arvin. I think that’s the nicest compliment anyone has ever given me.

It’s probably because we both see the same thing. Right or wrong lol. Your not to bad yourself.

I did very much enjoy our visit. Was really good to meet you.

I feel ya BJ!  Since moving out west I haven’t had a moment to work on a bow unfortunately and I’m feeling it!  It’s been like a void that I knew was the lack of shop time working on any number of bow projects.  All my projects are on hold till I get the new house in order and my new shop set up. 
Nothing like motivation I guess.  Glad you are back at it bj.  Always loved seeing your work!   Should be a good hunting bow there.

Thanks Dave.

I do find that a little time away does tend to make the time we get more valuable.

As they say absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Sometimes people don’t come back.

If you love something set it free. If it comes back it is true love.

I’m betting you will be back and inspired when the time is right

Good luck getting settled in.

Man I’m glad I don’t have to move again. It was hard enough when I only had a fraction of the stuff I have accumulated
