That just looks okie-doke with me, Okie!
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

Wow! Lot's of really nice bows being made out there!  I've been away for a while but still have one in the works.  It's been a rough go and now I'm on plan C.  :-[    Also been really really busy with other stuff.  I'll get it done it will just be a little while longer.  Hope it turns out as well as I'm imagining.....we'll see.

I got my trade bow shooting at the Central Oregon Bowyer's Gathering this weekend. it's amazing what you can do with a bow when you have Gordon, Keenan and Dave (Juniper Junkie) looking over your shoulder. We had a really good time and I'm really happy with how my trade bow turned out. I think people took some pictures but I don't have any; I was too busy making a pile of shavings. If I come up with some pictures I'll show you my progress.
