the swamp donkeys mow everything right up to the gravel here, so I bought a shiny red outboard instead.

My cam cleat showed up this week and I got a chance to do a bit of work today. Easy peasy installation and super easy to use, can't believe it has taken me this long to get roundtoit, thanks Shredd  :notworthy:  :notworthy:







Hitting 50# @ 22" now, still a little ways to go but a few shaves here and there is getting me there slowly. Right limb (top) is a little weaker than the bottom so yet to even them up a touch. Started on shaping up the grip and shot my heavy 'shoot-in' arrow from short draw and it's nice and quick  :thumbsup:

Nice...  My pleasure...

  Suggestion...  Raise that tree up to the top of that doorway... (80"}  And move that cleat up about 16" from the pulley...  You won't have to bend over as much to engage, it should be easier to engage and may be a bit safer to use...   

   You could just add wood to the bottom of the tree or make another if you choose...  I don't know if I would trust those easy clamps so much... Might wanna use C clamps...

Today and yesterday I laid around. Yesterday morning I woke up and my lower back had decided to go a different direction than the rest of my body.  :o   :dunno:

...but where is the gold?  :dunno:
I've been dealing with this for over 30 years now, on and off. Generally a few days on the couch with Ibuprofen will do the trick. It funny, it never bothers me if I'm working but just sitting around does it every time.

Took a day away from home and hit the foothills.   Came home and fell asleep for a couple hours.

Got the bow I'm donating to my states bowhunters organization roughed out.  Hopefully get the final sanding and a coat of finish on it tomorrow. Had to steal the birdseye out of my personal stash. I don't seem to get time to build myself a bow anyway.

Travis,

That is one fine looking bow!
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
