You sure made that stave and that skin proud!! Outstanding work. Those rat snake skins are becoming my favorites.

Oh....yeah....what they said :P :laugh:

Thanks for all the nice comments fellas. This was bow #4 for me. It is a smooth shooter for sure and has a pretty good speed to it, most importantly hits right where you look. I think this is the one I will using this coming hunting season. All the other bows Ive made had stiff handles and were in the 67-68 inch range, I really like the size of this one and will probably be making more in that 60-64 inch range. I forgot to mention earlier that I had heated it up with a heat gun to take some prop twist out of it and reflexed it about 1.5-2 inches before tillering. The skins colors really "popped" once they got that first coat of truoil. I'd recommend Cipriano's skins any day of the week!
