Thanks Grayson...it IS a cool name.  I choose his name from an influential East Shore decoy carver whose decoy style I still admire to this day, his name is Grayson Chesser.  At the time I had never run into anyone with that name and thought it was very unique and special.

Hey, that's "Fruity Pebbles" to you Sir  ;D

The bow was a decent 1st effort with some issues but I learned a lot from it so it served us both well.  It's shame we live on opposite ends of the country as I bet our two lads would have a heyday running through the wilds chasing whatever they could find.  I saw the pics on your snake skinning thread with that bow from Ken and he sure looks like he is attached to that bow but then again who could blame him!  ;D

Great picture,that is so good to see,the bow in beautiful,to bad about the frets. Tiller looks dead on,I wouldn't have thought it would have done that with such a good tiller. :)

Thanks Scott & Pappy!  Pappy, I am about 85% sure the frets are due to Teak being a poor choice for bows, particularly belly wood...the other 15% maybe due to the short length ntn.
