Well, I got my trade bow RE-mailed out to my guy this afternoon. I hope the giant circle around his address and the "TO:" helps get it right this time, lol.

Right after I got back from the post office, my wife called me and told me I have a package waiting at home!!

Can't wait.

Hopefully, ...it's not the one you just shipped this time!

I'll be shipping next week at the latest and will try to get some pics added in the next couple days. Whew!!! Glad it's about done.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

LOL...I hope not too, but I am reasonably sure this time. The post man would have had to sprint out the back after I gave it to him, and speed to my house well over the speed limit to get it there when my wife called me.

When my guy gets his bow from me, I am hoping he can post some good pics of it. I wanted to, but the only camera I have is in my 4 year old phone, and it is pretty much shot, lol. It certainly would not have done it justice.

*edit: I got my bow from Parnell last night. It is awesome. I made a more detailed post in his "Mingo" thread.

Man I really hope my guy is on vacation or something.  No posts on its safe arrival.  Tracking said it was delivered on Saturday.  I'm starting to get a little worried.

Man that bow is looking good.  I really like the curves on that thing.  Someone is going to be pumped.

Well I'm really looking forward to shipping this lady off; it has been a great bow to build and shoot, however, I'm going to miss her I think. So the final specs are: Pacific Yew, 74'' NtN and right at #80@28 ( shhhhhh don't tell); I tried to very closely follow the Mary Rose dimensions. I hope my recipient enjoys her! Please, any suggestions before its too late? Thanks.
