   I have been messing around with that service berry for a couple of years and not really getting anywhere.  Gordon has been prodding me to get moving on it, which to me means, go to Gordons' and get his help in finishing the bow... ;)   With Bryce and Gordon there, it was a no brainer.  All that is left is the handle, and I have one of the fastest service berry bows that I've ever shot.  Had a great time, and thoroughly enjoyed watching Bryce baby that yew stave.  It is going to be awesome!!
Thanks for the great day Gordon..

By all the smiles it looked like a real good time.  Friends and bows...it just doesn't get much better does it!

Can't wait to see that service berry Dave!  Post some pics when you get it done please.

Cheers!
