Nice bow Uwe. Looking forward to full draw pics. 
   Your pics are 800x600. Can you make them 640x480 instead. I can't see the whole pic on my screen. I know you just figured out how to post pics which took me 2 years but it makes it easier to see, for me, them  if they are a bit smaller. ;)     Pat
