Oh Mr. Thompson!  What are you up to?  There are several things that come to mind, some archery related and serveral not.  Hmmm!

Well, you're gonna just have to wait a bit and see.  This has been on my "to try" list for a while. Hope the recipient doesn't mind being a guinea pig of sorts.

Rick, my vote is for the molle. Oops, just saw I was a bit late on that. I like how it turned out anyway.

I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

Oh I'm back in the running then!!! 8) I like mine long for around 52#28.5 ;D
I've got a few in the works and am trying to get a couple finished for the exchange also.
My guy looks to shoot the same specs as I do so if one of them works out for me He's going to get one from a newbie~~~
