Thank you all for your kind comments,all.Shoulder is still a bit sore and I'm not exercizing that bow as I should right now.Getting better tho. Just realized that it is possible to get a 40" Turkish hornbow using 15" horn strips.That'll use up a couple of pieces that's kicking around.Flightbow maybe? Eppo. ps Thank you, ber643,man I'm moved by all this attention.
