I look forward to seeing it ,thanks again for the chance to try out that hunk o wood ;)
-
Man, that is one STRAIGHT piece of yew. Did you correct it? Good thing you did not let it rot. IT came out great. Super classy bow.
-
Wow! This has been a good year! I stopped by to visit my old buddy Soy last night and damned if he didn't just knock my socks off by giving me this old piece of yew back! I tell you folks, the pictures don't do this bow justice. She's a rare beauty and I can find no flaw on it. She's silky smooth on the draw and release and sinks those arrows deep! This is the one and only yew bow I have and what a bow it is! I didn't get any pictures, but i do intend to try and have many for the hunting pictures section. Soy...I can't thank you enough Brother! Josh
-
Very very nice, don't know how I missed this one ,I looked at the date first posted and must have been while I was off for the Classic, glad you brought it back up Josh. Beautiful. :)
