You're right, it's hard to get the true look of the Koa on camera. Pictures doesn't do it justice.

These TC threads are doing me no good.

I actually find the anticipation of a new bow quite fulfilling and an added part of fun. This is not the case this time. It reminds me of a common scenario when I was young. The coon dogs would be in the kennel located in the far back of our yard and out of site. Anytime in the evening, as soon as the tail gate was lowered, you and everybodyelse were quickly reminded they were back there.

There it goes again. Someone has lowered the tail gate on Big Jim's truck. Ruff! Ruff!!

Thanks for posting Pics Mike. Glad you are enjoying the bow.
Terry, I started building the "ManCave" about four years ago and Have hit several stumbling blocks since. We take do it yourself to a whole new meaning around here and buisness has gotten in the way.
There are two cedar trees holding up two truss beams in the room. It measures 40' square with 23' ceiling. My wife and I made all the pre cast stone in the pics and the dark wall is reclaimed lumber from a building in North Georgia.

Trust me, that room will be just as much my wife's as mine. She has nearly as many or maybe as many trophy mounts as I do. It is currently disguised as an archery shop(or storage) and with trickles of construction going on, it stays a considerable mess. I have found that the reclaimed wall makes for a good picture back drop too.
Enjoy Mike, Bigjim
