Thanks for the kind words every one! I really do appreciate your opinions on my humble sticks. Or in trucker speak, "I appreciate the flowers!". Just something we say when payed a fine compliment.
Traxx- I certainly cant speak for anyone else, but for me the more utilitarian and plain the bow, the more it stirs that little primal part of my soul that most people never discover within themselves. I can appreciate the effort, talent and attention to detail that the fancy ones require, but it is a completely different part of me that appreciates it. If that makes any sense at all.
Anyway, thanks again, Josh
