I was thinking that at the time.

You are looking at two bows and the riser of the blank.

The zebrawood is the riser of my 61 KS and the LH bow is a Ben Pearson Pro Staff 3000 for which I would dearly love a pair of 70 inch limbs, pretty well any weight.

They are all hanging or resting on the fence arms of a table saw.

The Beaver Creek blank has superb yew limbs.

Javi, that reminds me of a lawyer who brought a .22 in to the shop where I was working to get it fixed. He said his kid would be paying for it cause he had told him not to abuse the gun, which is not what one would expect from you average lawyer.  As a boy he had shovelled manure all summer to buy that gun and he wanted to teach his son a lesson.

The things we appreciate most in life are always hard earned.
