Cool sticks Zionator! Love the primitive looks of both of them. No doubt the full draw pics will show good bends cause all your bows do IMO, you turn out some nice work young man.

Dang Zion, I didn't know for sure that holly would make a bow. We have lots of the stuff around here! I'm for sure going to cut a couple of staves. You made two awesome bows there in the true Zion style! You know I love your bows! Good job on those two!                         Dale

Wow thanks guys! I really appreciate all the compliments.
I didn't fill the cracks with anything, the Holly seems to be really strong wood, if it grew bigger around me i'd definitely use it more.
Thanks bubby, it don't always work but when it does i'm happy haha  ;D
Thanks Dale! Make sure to seal it real well when ya do cut it, or it'll end up lookin like mine  ::) ;D

Not sure when I can get full draws, it gets dark so damn early  >:( And i have practice 6 days a week, so it might have to wait a bit   :'(

Jeez, you're what 14 now, I can't imagine what you'll be turning out in twenty years. I am always impressed with your bows. Keep at it.

I was wondering, if I adopted Zion, could I live on that farm?   ???
