You are a lucky man, yazoo. Brings back memories. One day my daughters were 4 and 8 years old. Then I blinked and they were 27 (almost 28)  and 32.  :) Jawge

Nice snakey stave, Mike. I don't think I've ever seen a hickory with that much snake to it.
   8) Post lots of pics of the bow when you're done! ;D
