Like the profile and lit-o-bit of character in that bow. Good looker and likely cast a arrow well to boot. Nice bow.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Thanks everyone.

Blackhawk I wish I could head towards the mountains this weekend, but I doubt it. I'm saving up on supplies for a Scout campout the following weekend with my youngest son. Gonna bring along a few all wood bows for the archery range and a few in progress. But one day soon I'll head your way. :-)

True, Steve is ageless. I learned a lot with him in only 48 hours. I'd love it to have been 48 days. Very cool guy. And Way smart.

There is just something down right soul cleansing hiking in the wilderness with a bow. Acorns are plentiful this year too, you might cook up some fat squirrels, then again trout might be nice. Enjoy!!! :P

Took the bow out last night to hammer in a few dozen arrows. Love the way this bow casts. It's a keeper. And the string lines right down the center. After shooting and unstringing it stayed straight as a board. I never heat-tempered it either.  >:D
