thanks guys! i started on this bow last june. with all that's going on it's taken me that long to finish it up. a few more specs, the fades are 1.5" tapering to a point with just under 3" statics. i used bison horn for the tip overlays and steam to bend the tips. i hand rubbed 8 coats of tru-oil and then went over the finish with stock conditioner to give a satin finish. i think i used my 60 degree form on this bow. i put rests on both ends of the grip because i noticed the lower limb of some short statics start to take a little more set after 500-700 shots. didn't want that to happen to this bow. never really checked the weight while i was tillering this bow out so i was surprised to find out the weight was 65#, she feels like 60. i wish i could go into detail about how i put the brush nocks on but it is a patented cade technique (steve and eddie will get this joke), but if everyone will keep a secret i used 1/8" strips of osage and walnut. heat them up with a heat gun, put on a little titebond, and clamp them down to fit the bend. the bow should slide through the bushes with ease with these brush nocks. i really can't feel any handshock with this bow. eddie and steve shot her a couple times, maybe they can add something as to how she feels. here are a few more pics.
