Thank you all for look and kind words. And yes Parnell those are a few of my own hunting shafts. Season opens here Sunday morning. Hoping one will find a home.  :-D

I'm blown away by the entire story. Everything harvested from his own land... what an amazing power you've put in his hand. Superb craftsmanship all around.

By gum, David, I do believe you just plain outdid yourself on this one!  Talk about going all in on a hand!

Thanks again. And Badger your right. My next bow is for his wife. The bow will come from the same stave just inside from his a true matching set. Though hers will be dolled up with bling. I'm thinking there is so much wood left the little one may need a starter bow too.

Love it knapper. Beautiful bow and really appreciate that everything came from his home range. I'm really liking that you got enough left from that stave for a hers bow to and maybe starter for baby to grow into.

You've made a beautiful hunting set. The bow and the arrows are eye pleasing.
Good luck for your hunting!
