Sorry guys I didn't take any pics of giving this one away to my brother in law,or of him shooting it,cus I was too busy shooting alongside him with my new trade bow :D

He was surprised and stoked...he's a wheelie shooter..I'm hoping he takes it out hunting at least once...I think he will. :)

Great bow, hope you get the bro in law converted.  I got my daughters boyfreind to put down his compound after I put a hickory bow in his hands. The problem is now that he has made his own osage bow, he is eyeing up my wood supply!

eyeing your daughter AND your wood supply. Man you got trouble!

That turned out sweet Chris!  Looks like you worked well with what the wood would give you on that one.  As for a a PA shoot, heck ya, call me up!  Bill and I tried to make it out on the farm on Sat but it was 29 degrees in the morning (and I was a bit hung over).  I aired some out later in the day.  The latest bow was shooting em about 165 at my draw length.  fun fun!  I'm ichin to let some more fly!  So what you up to Friday after work?  Want to kill some stumps and heat up some wood?  >>------------->
