Nice job, Art. You overcame some obsticles and stuck with her. Learning how to do that is a big part of bowmaking.

Thank you guys..I do appreciate the comments and such..Im hoping to hunt this year with this bow..I thought long and hard and I thought that "FRIENDSHIP" would be a good name as it brought me 2 new friends that were very kind and helpful..without this site ..I would have never been able to meet some great people here..
"D"  I do shoot both but I shoot lefty slightly better but will shoot righty as well at shoots..I like this during hunting as I wasn't able to take a shot at a deer 1 year going lefty but was able to turn and pivot and shoot righty and take that deer cleanly so I like to switch it up sometimes

What do you mean "actually liked it"??  Why wouldn't he have liked it?? lol  Ok you can stop giving me credit. lolol  Your the one that did all the hard work man.  All I did was drive to the post office.  Which by the way I live about a half a mile away from so not really a big deal there either.  lol.

Sorry to hear this. You had plenty of shots thought it to call it a bow.
Time to get back on the horse.

He makes knives too??  That's awesome.  Hey Art I agree with macbow, you cant put this one in the unsuccessful column.  In my opinion you made a working and shooting bow.  Yeah it broke but things just do that from time to time.  You got to shoot it for a while so it needs to be a check in the win column..but that's just my opinion.  Congrats on the knife Roy.

D I got a knife coming to you to bud  as soon as I can get the right steel. I know the logical thing to do is get out there and make a bow but I'm not sure if I have it in me to try after all the attempts over the years
