Adjusting sights on trade bow today, almost have it zeroed in

 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

Bue; I guess it's alright.

Hill that is a sweet looking bow. i hope you can't send it out straight away so I am still in the running for it.

My bow is coming along nicely and will hopefully get it to shooting condition this weekend. I have Saturday to myself and as long as the honey do list isn't too big I should be able to spend most of the day on it.

That's a real knockout, Bue. Roy should really appreciate that upgrade to what he normally shoots. I like the way you got the string to track down (I mean across) the middle of the bow.   :clapper:
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

Nice work Bue.  If you hadn't said it was for Roy I might have thought it was for me since it is shaped like the first initial of my name!  Nice S  :)

Now bue you have to put a finish on it before you ship it now. Bacon grease would be good.

Nice work a lot of bows are in the mail.

Sweet lookin bows! Mine is done.. I think I put the last coat of poly on it Tuesday night. I'm up in Amarillo for a funeral so it'll be next week before I can ship it. I've put 2 leather grips on it and don't really like the last one but I hit the Tandy leather shop today and made a haul on some sheep hide that looks awesome and I also picked up a nice roll of thin rawhide for a good price....

Beautiful bow Dan...Very clean and great wood combo!

Sorry Soy...I feel your pain. I have only tried my hand once at a non laminated glass bow. I used Hickory and it had a similar end. I saved the remaining piece and have plans to pull one or two arrows out of it. It is my way of saying..."oh no you don't!
