Don Berg, you ole Montana mountain biker, how the heck are you? It has been a coons age. We sure have been missing you around here. I think my last BOM is when you were running it. Hope all is well with the family.
   For everyone's information, Don Berg(aka Old Bow) was the creator of BOM on PA and ran it for years.
 Thanks, Don for the kind words.
 Thanks Jesse. you are more than welcome to shoot her at the Classic. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Photobucket has apparently released pics so I thought I'd bring this back up. Got some build along info and pics.  Pearlie is now the owner of this bow. How's she doing Pearlie?

Thanks for bringing this build back up top Pat.  Here is what became of the hole you cut off.

Nice bow Pat. Sure glad you got your pictures back.
Clint I remember that handle. Interesting to see where it came from.

This is a fantastic thread. The tiller on that bow is perfection. Thanks for bringing it back Pat.

Awesome axe as well.  ;)

Couldn't have thought of a better person to be the guardian, Pearlie.  :OK
 Ed, when I got that stave from Clint I was thrilled with the hole in it. After studying it I realized that the hole wasn't in a good location and that the rest of the stave was perfect to the bow I wanted to make. I hated cutting off that end but am very pleased with the results of both pieces.
 Upstate, glad you appreciate this thread. Lots of good info for sure.
Now if I can retrieve my 106 pages of pics back from PB I'll be happy.
