Hey Guys:

Have not had much time to work on this bow, but here is an update to where she is now.

Bow is about ready for final sanding and applying dye and spraying fullerplast.  Came in a little under weight, was going for 55# @ 28" and will be about 48-50# when broken in.  Will post pictures of finished bow when I get back from vacation in a few weeks.

Thanks,
