So many first timers this winter. Too cool to see the experienced sharing and getting new guys fired up.

Nice job to all involved.

Real nice. Love the simplicity of it, as well as the little trinkets you have attached. Man, I love those crazy orange arrows.

That turned out to be a really nice effort on your first. Then I noticed the arrow goes on the wrong side!!!!!!!! All kidding aside you did a great job on it and should be proud as a peacock to hunt and shoot with it. What did you name that sweetheart?
