Wiggly Yew
« on: October 17, 2015, 03:13:44 pm »
This is the snakey stave I posted earlier. It's from almost sister billets. 68" NTN. I left it a bit long cause I was chicken. 39#@27.5". Bloodwood tips. Chew hoof arrow pass. It's only had 100 or so shots. Seems to shoot nice. I'm really pleased with it and that it didn't break.

Wiggly is an understatement, that is scary wiggly. :)
That's an impressive tillering job.  Really nice work!
Yeah, I remember when we had a President who didn't wear a tinfoil hat.

Thank you guys, I really appreciate it. Never thought I'd be accused of being a good photographer. I think the fall colors make it work.
