Wow first one? Awesome job on that. Your son looks like he can handle it well.

Nothing wrong with that one. Now you're gonna have to break more rhyolite for arrows...

Cool little bow, Bryan. Looks like it fits your son just fine.  Was that one of Tom B's staves? I gave a few out at the camp-o-rama last year.
