Thanks for the update Brian. I think it's great he is staying busy.

Have you shot the new bow yet?  I bet it's a great shooting rig.

Typical nice shooter from John, it seems a little quicker than my other widow wannbe. I wanted another for a spare, they seem to be my favorite of his styles these days. Nice heavy riser, going to kill a deer with it this year, it has the new bow stink!

Beautiful bow!  Looks kind of reminiscent of the one piece Custom Big Horn to, or is it my imagination?

I really like that!
I bet it shoots so nice with that riser.
