Ya Dave looking forward to shooting the bow that you made that  Will B has.  He is quite the hunter, so it will be later on. Yesterday I cut a handle to deep trying to get the limbs lined, and it broke in two, so this morning I made a metal handle for it , and have one limb fit. In about 10 minutes I will be in the basement fitting the other limb, and keeping my fingers crossed that the limbs line up the way they should.

I’ve heard that he’s a good hunter.  I did ok this year but didn’t get the one I was after this year.  Too many clutter and little twigs between me the deer of choice.  Almost like he knew where to be.   lol.  He mentioned he enjoyed shooting it.  Good luck on your build!

My daughter came by this after noon, and posted the above pics for me. Bill do your hunting, and later on this winter we will build a couple bows together. Thanks for your kindness. Hope the pics show how massive this bow really is.
