Rich I was trying a fancy stain job, one limb was darker than the other, add some dye same problem back and forth and after a while got flussterd and thought maybe the bow had bad juju, just had to step away for a bit, pretty happy with the finnish now, and nothing wrong with the bow, she shoots hard and pretty fast to, Bub

thank's to everyone, finally got her done, 64" ntn 50# @ 28" straight taper with mild r/d, I used the embossed leather and worked it up some to give it an old look to go with the finnish, coyote silencers that I tanned last year, think she turned out pretty good after all, thank's, Bub

bubby I got a question...what stain did you use on the last go round ? I hope to have some hickory to stain soon and I sure do like it.

Beautiful bow..btw I shoot lefty and if you ever get to where you want to "give it away" like you almost did this one..... ;D ::)
