Made a 14 strand black and yellow flemish string for her tonight and have the center serving on.

Good luck Kelly, Hunting here went down hill fast. Our local deer herd got almost wiped out by the EHD disease the past month. Makes me sick inside as we had some very awesome Bucks running around and some very healthy does. Will take 4 or 5 years to get back to where it was.

That's sucks about the deer Roy. Come out here and we can go sneak on kennym's lease ground.    :archer:  

I'll give you permission and you give me permission. That way when we get stopped we can say we have permission to hunt it

Took some video shooting her tonight. Camera should have been a bit higher but you will have that. I left these 40-45 spine 11/32nd Douglas Fir shafts extra long so I can shorten them up when I get to tuning them to the bow. They are 31 1/4 to the back of the point right now. After I shot this video, I shot through some paper and the shafts are tearing a 2 inch wide hole showing weak. But I did ok. First picture is a video, click on it to start video.
