Sweet!!!

That bow didn't shoot that well for me, or I wouldn't have sent it!

Seriously though Ralph, I'm glad it's working out for you (and your better half) so well.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.

It's been awhile since I checked in, but it looks like there was some really great bows sent out toward the end here.  Great job gents!  Hurrah to another year in the books!   :clapper:   Now, who's ready for next year    :biglaugh:    :archer2:

Well, it's almost in the books. Last bow was shipped, but still waiting to hear about the receipt!

That said, it is about time to start thinking about the 2016 swap sign up. I expect it'll be coming out any week now.

Any update? You have a tracking number there Kelly? This could be a pretty cool Christmas present if USPS or whomever hasn't lost it!

Nobody tried.  Here all day, dogs are a door alarm.  This is common in my area.  We had an Amazon two-day take 11, only go be left in the rain.  Got a # for me, I'll rant at them myself.

Edit: no need, it arrived as I was posting.  That is one impressive stick of Osage if it does what it says on the tin, though I have no reason to doubt it.  I've only seen one other cupped bow-can't wait till my wife is done playing stylist so I can get some pics.

It works, I'm just out of practice with this hand healing.  36" arrow, by the way.
