Y'all are too much (and too great) but I love it.

Batman, (Don) that is one of my Canes indeed, with the "primitive fletching" (afixed with Fletching Tape - LOL) I'm a man for all seasons... er - eras - LOL. No wonder I haven't heard from John Dill for so long    ;)    - Tell him that if his Baby looks like me it is only because he has a smart, good looking, strong minded wife who has simply willed that the child look like me instead of him, so it's path through life will be easier - LOL (Also I love 'em both equally, as he well knows - the big clown!    :D   )

Mickey, thanks but please don't put that on me    :saywhat:   - I have trouble remembering my own name when I wake up mornings - how would I ever remember all those things about building bows that guys like you and other  real  bowyers carry in your headbones???    :eek:   I'd have a perpetual headache. All I have to hold in my poor head is the proper knowledge of who to ask or go see -   :)

Ha-Ha you can bet the "Old Sailor" (O.L.) isn't a whit worried - he's still my main Hoss.

I remembered someone asked how the bow shoots. It honestly shoots very nice, smooth and little or no hand shock and others around here (that draw the same as I) agree. I do have to cant it more than my other bows, and I haven't ouite got the just right arrows for it (for me) but I, and others, are very impressed with it's shootability.

Yep, that's the one, Wes - I didn't know it either - LOL. Thanks for the good wish. I figured out the night after the meeting that I had put my second nock point below the first one - instead of above it where I intended for it to be - Duh.

Hey congratulations Bernie. You've got my vote. I read my PA and TBM at work on the night shift, so I hope I get to say to my workmates 'Hey, I know that guy'.

Way to go, Bernie.  However, there's no need to brag.  Everyone knows Marines are the greatest at anything they try!!!

very nice---I really like that grip Bernie---what is it and how did you do it ? looks like it would give a sure grip even if your hands were sweaty or you had gloves on
