one for my oldest son
« on: October 12, 2007, 04:05:33 pm »
This is a bow for my oldest son he is nine. It is  a red oak board that started as a bow for a friend. The tiller was not good so I made a kid bow for my son. It turned out good -he love's it. The bow is 56" ntn and pulls 24#'s at 24" . Here are some pics.(this is my first attempt at posting pics we'll see how it goes)

I followed the link and saw one smiling kid with a bow....that grin says it all.  My son is 10 and we are doing more and more of that stuff together.

Good job, that is one happy looking kid.  If you are using photobucket, click on the bottom link and it will copy.  Then post it here and the pictures will show in the message.  Justin

The smile in that pic is one for the record books!  Great job!
