Good luck bud!

Stay with the PT Roy. And I bet Chris will like that shower more than you!  :biglaugh:  

I started on a 58" turkey blind bow...
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Picked up some poster board to lay out a new 3 piece bow I've been contemplating for months. Got a guy with a Cnc cutting out a couple different riser templates. Gonna have a small fortune in it and ain't even glued up the first piece yet! Lol.

Yes sir! Gonna build 3-4 sets of limbs with different tapers to get the best tiller and feel. Then start trying to figure specs for different length bows, then ect..........     :banghead:    There's a lot worse things I could spend money on! Lol

Finished up my biggest bow save thus far. For some reason I had a bow that developed horrible streaks. This happened quite awhile ago and I decided to chance it with some new glass and go for a fix. Here is the before. This was along both belly and back of the entire limbs.

   

I removed the glass from back and belly very slowly and carefully with a heat gun. I did not damage the veneers at all then reglued new glass.

And the finished product. I am happy to report that it shoots awesome and seems to be holding up nice.

I finally gave the bows I built to my niece and nephew. It was a little above freezing so we went out into the yard and shot a few. My brother in law even grabbed a bow and joined us.
Good way to spend an afternoon after working 7 hours of OT this morning.
