Son with his new bow, Good to go!
« on: October 15, 2008, 08:20:00 PM »
My son got his bow today, he's been patiently waiting for it for the past few months.  Here are some full draw pics and a quick video.

The build along is in the bow building forum, as well as some up close pics of the finished bow.

Awesome!!  :clapper:

I know I am.  WOW Tim!  That may be the finest kids bow ever made!  I'm so glad you took the plunge.  You are a true craftsman my man and I'm so glad you finally got to know that side of yourself.  Can't wait to hear more about it in person.

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words.  Blake has been shooting now for a couple years and is a natural.  

JT, you played a big part in my taking the plunge and I thank you for your encouragement. Let me know when Evan outgrows that Rhino.

I had a great time building this bow, and look forward to doing more real soon. I encourage anyone to build one, and let that young hunter help, even if its in the smallest way.
