A beauty!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Yikes!.....I'm partial to one piece recurves and that is the best of the best IMO....Wow! Great trade!

I've shot a couple of his bows....they were pretty plain for looks....this one looks as good as Big River bows shoot....

Brian,

Since you like plain-jane bows, I've got one I'd trade you for that "last Big River" beauty.
