Josh...nice Bow my Friend....I bet your "Wife" loves it....and I love your choice of Wife Beater Shirts too....one of my Favorite Groups.... ;D....take care and remember there are a lot of Us out here pulling ...and praying for You come Surgery Time...everything will go just fine...have Faith....I do....

Thanks David and Frank!

Thanks for the compliment and the idea with the tissue paper Pat!  It worked better than I hoped it would!  ..my wife's real name is Amy but I have been calling her "Kitten" for the past 9 or 10 years or so... She says I only call her "Amy" when I am mad at her, LOL.  :)

Thanks Jeff, amberb57, and Pappy! I remember seeing a bow from you that has this same type of handle Pappy--it feels really comfortable in the hand, now I need to make me a left handed version for me.  :)

Thanks a bunch, Jawge!

Thanks Hunter255!

Thanks Marc! I hope I can get her at least halfway interested in archery so I can be allowed more time with it and also have an awesome person to share this part of my life with. :)

Thanks Del and Thwackaddict!!

Thanks Mike!  I know the surgery will probably go fine but I am still a little nervous about it and I am really bummed about not being able to shoot or build for a few months... Thanks alot for the prayers my friend.  :)

Sweet bow, that tissue paper looks pretty cool actually.  I was a little skeptical when I first hear the idea, but I think I might have to try it.  And there's nothing wrong with purple, don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

I'm also thinking of building a bow for my girlfriend.  She has no interest in archery but maybe she just needs to try...

Hope all goes well with your surgery and you have a speedy recovery!
