Sounds good Dana. The arrows are coming along, I should have them finished in time to give them to Pat at the NC knapin in a couple weeks. I may have enough stone points on the way with yours, Shannon, Wade and I can use one of mine if I need another.

Yup were definately oddballs :) but in a good way eh ;) I was always taught to take care of your own and Tom and Patrick are family
and in a way Tom will live on through the memories this bow set will create.

The memorial bow is such a nice thought Dana, I couldn't think of who Tom was until  saw the pictures you posted, and then I remembered talking to him also, very soft spoken. I believe he and I talked while I was making my sinew bow string with Rick. After reading the posts I really don't know what I could possibly contribute with the talent you have working on the bow so far. I'll be eager to see it's completion.

Well here she is, still undecided as to whether there is bow in this piece of wood, mulberry is soft just doesn't seem
very good. There is a crack in the handle but that shouldn't be a big deal. I'm sending it to Pappy on tuesday and we will see what he thinks.

Its obvious I'm not going to win a Best Dressed award in the near future :D
