Glad it made it to you Shawn. It's a BBO built by John Scifres. I couldn't keep you waiting any longer bud especially with hunting season fast coming.
 
 That boo backed bloodwood that blew on me had about an inch of starved glue joint on the fade area and that's why she blew. I haven't even worked on a bow since that last one I figured I needed a break for sure. About pulled my hair out. LOL

I hate it but, I also still owe a bow too. It is done but, I can't ship it just yet due to some 42" rule and the cost of shipping anything longer. I'll explain to everyone soon.

Well the finish on mine is drying. Then its a coat of wax and a bit more shooting in. Sorry Kelly, I can't for the life of me find that camera. I'll borrow one for the finished pics.

Well, I sure hope my bow made it to my recipient in the one piece it left in. I neglected to tell the mrs. to go for delivery confirmation when I sent her to the post office almost 3 fridays ago, so I have no idea if it even got there. I'm sure it's probably only fair cause it took so long for me to finish it, but still.

Anywho, I haven't seen any other bows being tossed about. Who else has not received one?

My prayers are that you will receive a bow soon.  If the bowyer will not or cannot provide his end of the deal there is a small amount of solice in that he wont be in anymore swaps...

I think the lack of posting is bowyers making shavings fly. They have shoot me PMs to let me know where there at. I know of one bow still in the mail.
I hope this thing wraps up soon but I know they are working on their bows.
