That thang is fine, Rich. The skins are so cool! Looks like a real deer slayer for sure! That really cheers me up after yesterday!

So glad you like it Ken, that's what counts. You are right Stringman....George's gift sure made it easy to dress up a plain girl for the dance. The rest aint no big deal, friends helpin friends is all.

Yep, friends helping friends. Glad I could have a small part in it. Pretty skin from a dead snake in the middle of the street.  :)

I got it!  I got it!  I got it!! Half Eye's bow got here today and it makes me realize just how far I have to go when it comes to tillering. A shorty with a smooth draw for an excellent bow for a tree stand or ground blind and a real work of art. I had a long day at the office today and have to go over to my son's house tonight, so I only had time to grab a few shots. I can't wait to get more shots in tonight or tomorrow. I will post some pics later tonight or tomorrow. Thanks, Rich!!

That is one cool lookin' bow!  Funny how things work sometimes.  Too half eye, so cool to see that kind of generosity.

Fancy color changing skins, great looking bow, and good medicine to boot ....SCORE!
Is this bow making a sickness? or the cure...
