As much as I'd love to bust your chops ole man... I must admit that's pretty sweet!!   :thumbsup:  

Did you stain the bow, or is that just some really dark Osage?

I guess it's ok. Good looking bow Roy. You have those trilams figured out. Do we get a full draw pic?

Thanks guys. I have so much to do outside this time of year that I don't spend a lot of time in the shop. First thing I had to do here was figure out how to work the darn camera. It's a cannon power shot S3 and it's way over my head. Had to read the book to set up the timer delay to take these pictures. And I didn't capture the entire bow on the outside pictures:) Had to trigger the timer and run around front and pull the bow. Never said I was a camera wizard. LOL

 

 

 

 

 

And this one below just went on the tree.
