  I told ya so. You can't kill that stuff. Give it 3 years and it'll be 15' high. Then it's ready for shooting.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Ya at that angle it looks like a totally different bow, and that looks right on..I always like it better for these threads when they are shot like that as opposed to the stick for some reason..They look more correct..

Thanks Rich....I knew it wasn't as far off as the Picture showed...if any.....I had to lean it back against the Fence to get it to stay up...and it skewed the Picture so much that you can see the Tops of the Limbs and the Bottoms from the Side View....never should have posted that Picture!!!!!!! ;)

Dana....I should be leaving on the 19th or 20th of this Month.....We are supposed to be entering the Salmon Tournament....but I have not called My Dad to make sure yet....I am a sort of Last Minute Kinda Guy!!!  I have to be back here....and in Austin, Texas for my youngest Sons wedding on the 8th of August...

Thanks John...I have a fondness for the Wide Limbed Bows.....they are my favorites

Wow, what a lot of reading - have been on the river last few days, trying to catch up. Bow looks good, I'll have to try another one of them some day. First one went south on me :'(.
