you need a different string for that one as the one in the pics is a D10..you need one of my souped up 8190's  you did a amazing job and even with the boo boo's you knocked it out of the park
Roy..D said make to make a mid 55's for his buddy Art and he will send u out one of his      heh heh

[Roy from Pa]

Oh so now we are buddies? LOL

[JJB]

Dang nice looking bow there!
-Jay

[Razorbak]

well Roy..I would like to think so  

[D]

Roy I know you like those big ol long bows but I usually like to keep mine around 62 to 64 or so, 55 to 60#@28.  What woods are you thinking about??


Art we have been over this I like the d-10.  I had to move my nocking point way up with the 8190, but the absolutely no hand shock from it was freaking awesome.  Hell if Roy keeps on with those "Pleases you may have to ask him what kind of string he would want..lolol

I really do appreciate all of the compliments everybody.  Thanks you.

[Roy from Pa]

How about Osage, red elm core, and boo backed?

[D]

Oh its got to have osage and boo.  That is a must for sure.  Don't know about red elm.  I don't know if I've ever seen it before.

[Roy from Pa]

Elm is light, but strong. Makes for a snappy shooten bow.

We got a trade or not, Boy?  If ya don't want one, I'll just make Ole Artty Boy one so he has a bow to hunt with this fall. I can have him a bow made and shipped in about 5 days.

[canopyboy]

Very nice D.  Love the wood choices and the curves.

[D]

5 DAYS!!! Damn the retirement is tough stuff...lolol  What the heck Ol Man your awfully quick to throw me under the bus and just start offering the bow to Art. He wouldn't appreciate it as much as I would...lolol   I thought this trade was already a done deal but not if your so quick to just offer "MY" bow to Art..lolol.  Elm sounds great. What are we talking for a riser??

[Roy from Pa]

Not a done deal till you say ok. You send me that bow and I will build you whatever you want. But I would put Bacote on for the riser and flip the tips, and add special horn tip over lay. And I can make better strings than ole Artty.

I'm thinking that the new wife has Artty strapped down under her thumb. Ya notice he hain't been online much since he said, I do.. LMAO

[SteveD]

Beautiful Bow. Great Job

[Razorbak]

You big SOB. David tricked all of us here. He made the bow with the intention of making it for me. He use photo buckets to switch it from righty to lefty. When I lucked in winning Kenny's give away. My intention was to send these lams to David to make a bow for himself because of all the kind things he helped me out with.  Dude you got me and he was in cahoots with Roy and Kenny.  Man you guys stink big time   I can't ever begin to repay him but trust me I will and to top it off. He sent the bow but no string now I have to twist one up before I can shoot it. You big chump LOL. Seriously dude a big thank you goes to you and your little elves  
I can't over the willingness on this site that guys who never met before will go and help guys they never met. But by doing that makes life long friends in my book.  Thank you again and pics to follow when I get everything situated

[Roy from Pa]

Ya mean to tell me that damn David sent you MY BOW? Just wait till I catch up with him, I'm gonna thump the tar outta him.. LMAO  

Him and I laughed so hard when he said he wasn't sending you a string. LOL.. LOL.. Ya got a new bow and ya can't even string her up, LMAO:)

It's a beauty, Art. Enjoy your hunting season this fall with her.....

David, you are one hell of a good Man! Thanks Bud.. Roy

[kennym]

You guys are the coolest!!    

Art, I din't kno nuffin!! Was D and Roy all the way!!  :D

[Roy from Pa]

Yer full of saw dust too Sister McKenzie.
Well Art, ya shoot her yet? We want pictures son...

[D]

lolololololol  GOT THAT FULL DRAW PIC WITH THAT NEW STRING YET.  Its funny crap Art.  Surely you didn't think Ol Roy actually wanted one of them fancy smancy glass bows.  I'm serious this is the most excited I have been about building a bow.  The joking side if it made it a real blast.  Art I mean it there is nothing to pay back.  The only thing I ask is I want to see the pic of you getting an animal with it, or at least trying..lol  And Kenny knew it all..lolol  ya got to watch me and Roy we are quick to rat you all out..lolol  Art your very welcome it was my extremely my pleasure.

[Razorbak]

Man Im sitting here admiring her and she is a beauty..I would have twisted a string had her strung and shooting but this afternoon I either sprain or cracked a bone in my wrist so I can do nothing yet until I find out what I did...Kenny you Roy are all guilty by association     D Im afraid if I get her to full draw she gonna snap..that aint gonna happen is it..LOL  man to send a bow without a string..man that's harsh..LOL
Guys from the bottom of my heart Im honored and hope to take a nice deer with her this year..got to get my wrist checked out then I can go from there

[Roy from Pa]

Dang Art, if your wrist is messed up, your gonna be just ah hanging out:) What happened, Momma whoop ya arm wrestling?  LOL
