Glad you like it Josh. I had thought about keeping it till after turkey season but was afraid id never send it then.


Lol,  I know exactly  what you mean.  If it'll make you feel better, I'll try to take a gobbler with it next week.  Josh

Kat, That is a great looking shortie. I get excited when I see the shorter draw lengths, :o >:D

Hammertime, Great looking bow. I'm sure you probably took that picture in a mirror to throw us off about the lefty thing. :o

Well, she's all finished up! It has been really fun and challenging to work on this bow and it's going to be hard to part with her. This is my fourth bow but the first one that I have done by myself from start to finish with no hand's on help from anyone.  She's  pacific yew with ebony tips, 67" ntn, about 57# at ??". Thanks a lot for all the advice that I received from people here on PA, It wouldn't have turned out the same without you. I think I'll do one more coat of Tru-oil before I ship it out so it may take another week before it hits the road.
