Chad,

 Get ahold of me through PM and get me your phone # and I will get with you on the quiver for the package. I need to go pick up some leather in a few weeks and need to find out a few preferences from you.


 Nice looking stick by the way!

Very nice. It seems with that many contibutors that it would be tough to pull off this quality of a project. Guys, you did GOOD!

I can't imagine ever building a bow of that quality... and I definitely can't imagine pulling it off in concert with the hands of so many "artists."

It's like Rembrandt starting on a painting, passing it along to Monet for the intermediate steps, and having Da Vinci put the finishing touches on it.  Amazing job, guys!!  Would have made me a nervous wreck...

Hope you get great enjoyment from the bow, CHAD.

I just want to thank all who worked on this bow for documenting the "birth".  Never before had I seen how the process begins all the way thru completion.  

I think Hawkeye summed it up...

Thanks again
