Thanks guys, and yes that is indeed twine string I took off our bales. I've used them for tillering strings before, and kind of substitutes before I could get a real one made, but eventually just got tired of making strings and ended up putting a serving on the twine and calling it good. They hold together quite nicely. My sisters are quite fine Pat although they just played the part of moral support on the hunting trip. By the way this picture was part of the set though not included for the obvious reason that it does not have bow in it but after reading Stik's reply I realized that one of my picture posts would not be complete without it.
