Looks great. Black walnut makes nice arrows, probably make a nice flute to finish out a set.

thanks ken and swamp!  ken I was thinking about shooting some right handed too for the same reasons... that's also the reason I play guitar right handed... everyone i knew when i started had right handed guitars...   :)   last time i tried to shoot right handed i ended up with big puffy bruises on my left forearm from my elbow to my wrist...  i miiiight need to invest in another arm guard, LOL.  :)

That is a killer bow, Josh.  Absolutely beautiful.

I switched to lefty last year because of eye dominance, and it really wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it would be.  Switched back and forth a few times this past weekend just because I wasn't shooting worth a crap lefty.  Unfortunately, I didn't shoot worth a crap righty, either.
