Sweet bow dude!   I especially like the story of how you stuck with it and stuck with it and kept sticking with it until you got the bow you wanted.  I think it makes it that much better.  Nice job man. 
Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?

I'm not sure how I missed this one, must have been due to my lack of patience with mom and dad's dial-up connection while I was out hunting. 

Anyway, this bow looks amazing! Well done!

Yeah, I missed this one. Glad I caught it cause this is a super looking bow.

One request,Chris. Can you possibly show a close-up of the tips? I really like 'em but ain't know how to do that.

Thanks cameroo

Lane...here's a better pic of the nocks I do. I just cut a couple small pieces of padauk and shaped em on the belt sander to fit over the back of the bow tip,glued and clamped em down with TB3, then reinforced em with serving and superglue. Pretty simple. I use these nocks on bow tips that are too narrow to side groove. Oh and thanks for the kind words sir.

Thank you Chris. I like that a lot and now that I know how you did it gotta try it.

Course it is deer season but that hornbeam stave we talked about a while ago is next in line...
