Nothing really Inksoup. Glass works just fine. It's just friendly joking between wood and glass builders. No harm intended.

One thing folks if you are a veteran at this let me know if you are building for someone you have built for. I will do a switch for that.

Looks like folks are pumped up and ready to go.

Got the hackberry bow floor tillered, hope to get the nocks filed in tomorrow and on the long string.  Once I get it bending evenly on the tree I plan to heat in some deflex to off set all the natural reflex.

Yes, post some pics up as you go.
Man I better get on the ball. I just need to order me some more smooth on and decide if my victim would like a r/d longbow or my new recurve.

This swap reminds me of the time I was stalking a good eatin size hog when all of a sudden a boar about 400 lbs stood up and faced me at 25 yrds. I suddenly felt small and inadequate!! Well, I've stalked my victim and I feel completely inadequate! But I'm gonna let er rip and see what happens!!

Got to take some pics of the bow at robbers cave state park, Oklahoma this weekend.
64 inches ttt, about 65# here at 28 with me drawing it (Im struggling if you can't tell)

     

This is my first FG bow so it is really hard to let this go. I've been shooting it daily the last 2 weeks and im loving it.

I had originally planned on making an osage recurve for my recipient, however I got his stats shortly after this was complete and they matched this bow perfectly, I felt like it was bow fate.

your recipient should be stoked with that bow, very nice. I can understand your reluctance to let it go!
