I got mine yesterday at mojam,  hand delivered by Paul! What a beautiful, beautiful piece of wood! He also included 3 ash arrows a bow sock. What a bow,  it's gorgeous. Not much lipstick and makeup but this one doesn't need anything. It is perfect and draws as smooth as babies butt. I'll try to get some pictures posted when I get home!
Thank you my friend!

Just like patrick I recieved a hand delivered snake skin backed osage bow at MoJam. Delivered by Patrick himself. It's a BEAUTIFUL bow, that's smooth drawing, quick, and very quiet. Two things that make it even better. He added 'coon tail string silencers. And I got to help with handle wrap without even knowing it was going to me. Which the wrap is sweet looking and very unique being hackberry bark. I hope I can take some pictures that do the bow justice. As long as the weather holds out I'll get some pictures after work tomorrow and get them up tomorrow night.

Thanks a BUNCH for such and awesome bow!!!

You are very welcome Kyle!

I was kinda worried about you seeing it take its final shape but it was pretty cool that you helped me wrap the handle. I hope you enjoy it for years to come.

Congrats Kyle. I have one of Patrick's bows. He does awesome work. That's to cool that you got to help him and didn't even realize it was for you.

Glad you like it Patrick. It was from the nicest stave that I had left and couldn't be for a nicer guy.
But, I warned you guys that I make plain and simple bows when you started this...  ;)

Looks a lot like Mr Stanbury.

Didn't see you when we were heading out Ed, but the bow shot my heavy douglas fir arrows straight and with a punch.

Had fun at MoJam and wish we could have stayed longer.

Man I would love to make mojam one of these years. I would really like to meet you guys and work on some wood.
Glad you like the bow beadman . I hope it shoots as good for you as it did for me. And it makes it to the woods with you on some hunts be it stumps or game.

I recieved my trade bow from Arvin last week, but today's the first chance I've had to post about it. I've been real busy lately. Anyway, I don't have a full draw yet, but here are the rest of the pics. I haven't shot it yet, but I don't need to to know that I love it. It's at the same time both elegant and simplistic. I think its beautiful.
