I had the day off work today for the 4th, so I finished up Caleb's bow with the handle wrap. Here's some pics. The curly maple is pretty neat with a "hologram" kind of look depending how the light hits it.

I need to pick up some bubble wrap later today and it will be on its way to its new home early next week.

Caleb - Thank you for your generous donation to St. Judes!!!

Caleb, it shoots great! John let me fire a few test shots through it before it got the final coat of finish and a wrap. I tried to shoot it with my string hand behind my head to get to your draw length, but didn't have much luck. At my draw length it sure shot nice though.

And the effect of the curly maple as you turn the bow at different angles in the light is amazing.

Like John said, thanks for the donation to St. Jude!

That sure is a fine looking bow, love the look of that maple.

Yeah, that curly maple has a lively looky.

What did you stain it with?
