I have 4 done except for the handle wraps. Not real crazy about how any of them shoot so I started a 5th bow. I have it at brace and pulling about 12". I hope to get it tillered to full draw in the next week. There is still time and I don't think I'll go down to the wire on the shipping date. (fingers crossed).
I definitely do not want to be starting #6.

Thank goodness I am done and just setting back enjoying watching the builds, I hate deadlines.

O I forgot I have another deadline for a ElmHall bow.

Hope you have a fast and complete recovery Simons.

My Trade Bow was scheduled to be delivered yesterday but I think my recipient is probably on the road.

Don't be so hard on yourself Paul. You are at least a B-

I sent my bow off last week but I am not big on photos so never posted it in advance.

I have been told by my daughter that I received a long tube in the mail yesterday, but being her mothers daughter....she would not divulge any more information than that.

The ornery little turd! However, I think I have an idea where came from...if I'm correctly interpreting recent clues on this thread. If so I couldn't be more tickled! Hopefully I'll get to stop by the house Thursday and find out before I go compete this weekend.
I have been remiss in posting my progress on this trade, but I am on schedule. The only update picture I have is of the Cobra skin I put on. Just a teaser really. I'm about half way through applying the tru-oil and just need to sign it, finish the finishing and put the handle wrap on. Then I'll ship it out.
I have to admit that the whole A-team/B-team bit has chapped me a bit. I realize that most are joking, but clearly some are not. I can't really put it into words why it bothers me, but it does. Josh

The glimpse, Dov, just makes one lust to see more!

Wrapped it up with clear hockey tape so that I could check the glue-line and then wrapped again with inner tube. No pics of it wrapped in inner tube but if you let your imagination run wild you should be able to picture it.
