Here's a pic Todd sent me yesterday. I'd say he's doing pretty good for not really ever shooting instinctive before. Makes me happy to see him shooting it so well.

Good looking bow!

Thanks for the comments guys.

Hey Josh.... I've been around buddy. I never do any building during hunting season, then I fell and broke my elbow in November. It was a real bummer.... I was on some nice bucks ::( so I was out of commission for awhile.. I built a little Osage recurve for my son then this black locust. I've got a couple more started. Feels good to hold the draw knife again brother!!!!

     Thats the way to build a locust bow, great looking. I like those rat snake skins as well.
