VB- Sweet looking combo, love the dye job and the skins. That's the first time I've read about anybody backing Hackberry with anything, how do you think it would do with a boo backing? Never worked with hickory before.

Nice job to all the guys, some nice looking bent sticks showing up and more coming out of the wood work all the time. Mine is nearly ready to ship, probably on Monday. Would have liked to get it on it's way by today (Friday) but it just didn't happen.
Kelly I'll email you when it ships, but barring all natural disasters it will be on it's way Monday the 11th.

Juan the tiller looks great on that stick.

 Awsome job Guys and Gal. Looks like it's gonna go off with out a hitch this year other than us late shippers. Good Thing I stuck that grace period in there or I would be in trouble with a few others LOL.

Really nice bow Juan! You're design looks very similar to the last couple bows that I've made. I'm very impressed with that design myself, very quick indeed. What's the stats on your bow if you don't mind me asking.

Nice job everyone! Art

This mornig the Fed-ex truck pulled in the drive way and I hit the door running.  As I'm flying across the yard, he pulls a big square box from the back of the truck and I screetch to a halt.  It was the beach chairs the wife ordered for vacation.  Talk about a let down.  I was ready to fling some arrows.

Mine is finished and will be shipped out on Monday headed to ****** in **    :saywhat:  

Here's a few pics and I sure hope he likes it. It's not exactly what he asked for, but I did my absolute best I can do at my current skill level.

The only specs I can give until he recieves it is that it's a straight profile BBO with black snake through the handle and about halfway out to the tips. It's 60" NTN and retained about 1" of the original 3" of reflex I glued into it. I think this is the fastest bow I've built to date and really hammers my 450gr. CX Predators with authority. I'll let my recipient post more pics of it when he gets it if he chooses to.

I finished the handle wrap today, took some pics, and will be packaging it up shortly in a 3" piece of PVC pipe. I decided to go with the PVC after hearing the horror story a couple of pages back about the one that got crushed by Fedex.
I didn't beat myself up making the best bow possible just to have it squashed by some guy whos pissed at his job and in a hurry to run home on a Friday evening.   :knothead:  

 

 

 

The money shot
