And here is the best my crap camera will give up! The full draw shot will come tomorrow afternoon when my buddy comes to grab her up :'(. It was a relatively trouble free build with no suprises. Thanks for ALL the comments and thanks to those super secret readers that followed along silently........you know who you are  ;). Its been fun and thanks PA for letting me use this site to post my hardheaded opinions on and post pics.

Sweet beast PD. good to see it completed. Love the classic smooth curves in the recurves and the handle area.

This bow is really a beauty.  I think its my favorite bow you've posted.  Hard to let em go when you've put so much in.  But you wouldn't want it any other way.

Thanks all! I will try to get some better colored pics when Casey gets here to grab her tomorrow. Maybe a few action pho-to's.

I knew when you flipped the tips on this one it was gonna turn out great. Fantastic job, PD. Very educational and informative build-a-long. Thanks for taking the extra time!!

Woowee that's good lookin'.  I think I know what the full draw will look like.  Perfect even bends in both limbs  ::)  But I still can't wait to see it.  Good job Pearly.

Yeah, yeah, blah blah, we all love you too.  Can I get you a towel for yer tears? 

The only reason you ain't been banned is the high quality bow porn you post.  You would do well to remember that.  Keep posting bows and build-alongs like this if you what's good for you.   >:D
