Howdy all,

Wow!   That's a terrific bow. . .  simple, and sweet.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks guys. I live in sw Louisiana and it is very humid. I tried the hotbox thing for hickory, but I found Pat's advice about bringing into the a/c the ticket to getting the m/c down. Keeping it dry and not over stressing it early on is what I'm learning about hickory. Course my wife really doesn't understand why I have a whole hickory tree under our bed. ;D
