Very Nice Blackhawk,
Impressed with the speed, draw, and arrow weight. You think I could get them kind of numbers out of a piece of Douglas Maple its only 52"long  2" wide?  Man I wish it would just sprinkle some Osage shavings here in Canada  We are in a bad Osage drought. Keep up the good work....   Make meat ,Chuck

Thanks guys... ;D

Not sure if you can get those numbers with that short of piece of maple chuck. But it sure don't hurt to try. Its all about design and tiller. Make it bend thru the handle and make some scary narrow deep static tips like mine and see what happens.    ::)

And im glad I could entertain some of yins guys :laugh:

I hear ya on the heat...we've been 80+ for the last 7-10 days and it is supposed to mid to high 70's yet until Friday or so...

I have only sat out once so far and not even the squirrels were moving  ::) BUT today I did some surface hunting in a field for artifacts and I found a spot on my Grandma's property where the deer have been having a nightly Block Party in this poor farmer's corn.  Looked like someone had a Dozer in there doing donoughts soooo I have my Ghilli all ready and know where I'll be sitting with my mini Killer Hawg bow over the weekend!
