My son had to work, so he could not go to the shoot with us. So I had to shoot it myself. I shot my best primitive score of the year, 151 on a 20 target course. I came in second to the guy who gave my son the stave by one point. I was well pleased with how she shot. And even more pleased that it didn't blow up.
After work this evening I went by another friends house and he gave me a real nice hickory stave that has been drying in his basement for over a year. So now it's time to build myself a bow. I have a bench and vice under a nice shade tree beside my barn. I enjoyed taking my time watching the shavings fall,and feeling the change in the wood as I worked Taylor's bow. I 'm going to start on mine tommorrow. Thanks for all the nice comments. If my next one holds together I'll  post a pic.

nice job on that one


why wait to see if it becomes a shooter before you post a pic,post a pic and ask questions as your building it.
people here like that ;D ;D

Sweet bow.....Maybe your next will turn out just as nice.  The other one is a beauty.
