Very cool, Mark!  That has to be satisfying after the "fussing" (as you put it) to have a proven, huntable bow.  I like the fades and deco on the back of the limbs.

Someday, I would like to learn how to make a self bow.  Guess a shop would be in order.  Where did I put that Powerball ticket?

That's fantastic and inspiring. I've been watching this thread while managing to keep my mouth shut and it's been great.

This buck you've shown us motivates me to further my complete transition into hunting with traditional gear.

Thanks and good luck.

One last deer to add to this year's bow success!  I took this little buck on the last day of the season here....legal on my antlerless tag.   This bow has certainly earned it's right to hang next to several of my other successful shooters.....Thanks again folks for following along, and good luck with your builds.

 

 

And here is one more fulldraw pic taken in October.
