Thank you for the comments fellas. Don, Gutshot if not for you guys it for sure would not have happened. Hopefully I can get some FD pics tomorrow, and shoot some arrows across the field.

HD that's a sweet looking bow!

Oglala looks like a good start to a great bow.

Rich  oh wow that is a nice set up you got going on, love the skins, and to top it all off with a outstanding knife.  You do killer work!

half eye, those short scalloped bows are so sweet. I have tried a couple of those and I keep getting low poundage or too much end bend. They are hard to make and you do well with them.

Very nice half eye, love those scallops.   And wow, killer otter quiver and bowcase.  Gutshot sure knows what he is doing with that tanning.
