I like that one Pat.

Thanks,  I'm used to working Osage, so this hickory is a bit stubborn. Reminds me to take my time and slow down a bit.

Got some work done on mine today. String is all lined up and the tips flipped and one limb heat treated. Here's a couple of pictures.

Right limb is heat treated and it shows.

Nicely done I like it. Arvin

A few more pics with the hated pistol grip. I think I need to take a tad more off just below the handle to mid limb . Arvin

[Selfbowman]

I have to take pics with I phone and email to iPad and my pics come out squashed for some reason. Oh well the bow is not squashed. Arvin

[Selfbowman]

Another try. I am so computer challenged!!!

Arvin - I don't know why anyone would hate on your pistol grips! (?)  The one I held in my hand at OJAM felt like it was born to fit my palm.  ...and it was danged near perfectly center shot - which I still think is an advantage.

Arvin that is coming along nicely. I agree with your tiller adjustment.

[Selfbowman]

Guys the full draw pic is not a good representation of the bow.the squashed pic makes the ends look stiff. Sorry Arvin

Nice looking bows fellas

[lebhuntfish]

Thanks Arvin!
Your bow will be sweet for sure! I like the handle a lot. The tiller adjustment you mentioned seams to be all that it needs.
Can't wait for that one to show up on my door step!

Very nice Arvin. I know who is getting the bow and I can assure you he will like it.
