Well it was a bad couple of days, I hurt my back splitting out an osage stave and was laid up til yesterday. The bow is shot in, sanded and ready for finish. I'll take a couple of pics today.
Finish looks like this afternoon. . .maybe.

Wingnut,
That is a great looking bow.
What are the limbs made from? Appears to be Bamboo and Osage.
Thanks

Here are a couple of pics after installation and shaping the tip overlays and sanding the bow.
It is in the paintbooth ready for sealing coats later today.

Well she got sealing coats yesterday and as soon as it warms today, she'll start getting final finish.
Should be able to ship on Monday. I'll take pics before we pack her up.

Larry,
The bow should be there Wed or Thurs. Just in time. Hope he can lay something low with it while he's home.

Mike,
We are sure gonna try. We are headed to the cabin for 6 days of hunting fun. That is one pretty bow, and I'll be on the lookout for it.
Thanks again,
Larry

Bow looks great Mike...can not wait to get her tuned up and into the woods.
Technology is great...turns out that there is free wireless in the airport in Ireland. So, while waiting for crew swap I get to hang out on TG and check out my new bow

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Tehy tried to deliver the bow yesterday and now it's in the USPS. Killdeer did you have anything to do with that?
Will someone go rescue the bow from them, they are probably fondling it right now.
