Good move jj.I like your bow.It rose to the status of your favorite again.....LOL.Good luck after those elk.

Very nice. Really nice selection with the sturgeon.

the wood in this bow is a "mottled" juniper. the tree that was growing was split, this half fell away and wos continuing to grow, but was having a rough time, so the wood was slowly dying, as a result, the wood has heartwood and sapwood mixed throughout, with a thin layer of sapwood on the outside. I left about 1/4" 0r less of the sapwood on the back.  the lettering on the top limb says "choot em". and on the bottom limb says: "vision quest" as this is my attempt to harvest a trophy quality animal with all primitive tackle. although any game taken this way is special, I would like to get a large mule deer buck or bull elk with all primitive tackle. dont know how many years I have left to hunt so I am trying to get my opus. soon, all I will have are memories, but what a fantastic trip this has been.
