Very nicely done bow pappy, just love the look of that braced up side profile with the graceful tip bends. Unbraced flat profile looks just perfect too. Handle wrap, skins, tip overlays, its all nice and I bet it is a smooth shooter. Hope you get something with it this fall.

Pappy, like all of your bows, that's another fine one.

Very nice, I bet it's a joy to shoot.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Pappy everything about this bow is likeable. I bet it's fun to shoot. Well done. Well done.

Thanks for the good comments ,much appreciated. :) Lennie I had to tweak the tips a little to get them lined up ,other than that not much. No heat treating,just a little reflex,It does pull off the static just a bit at my draw,with a longer draw it would be more,it shoots pretty fast for the size and length of the bow. I been shooting about a 575 grain arrow and it will send it down range pretty good and hits with a pretty good thump,should be a good hunting bow. :)

Nice looking bow.  I'll make some copies of the photos and show Al.  He and his family are coming to Hawkeye this weekend and camping next to us.
