I liked that too Roy! I also always like your saying, If your mind wanders so to will your arrow. My mind wanders quite often.
  I'm not very fancy with my bows. Use a tip protecter on the lower limb and have used the Kwik Look arrow holder for close to 40 yrs.

out of curiosity, what are the .45 cal balls for? to add weight and mass or what is the purpose of them?

Yes...and not only to add mass to the riser but also...I took great care in spacing so that the balls were truly "suspended" in the silicone...and that did more to dampen the vibes of this bow than the broadband limbsavers did...it's awesome....I love it...you couldn't pay me $100 to take them back out.

Too pretty, can't bring myself to do anything to it, the skins came with the LB.

P.S. just remembered, I did put seal skin on it for the rest.

Does anyone have a slick way to attach a flashlight or something like that to a 1 piece or 2 piece bow?

I only tried once, and it kinda back fired on me. When I ordered my Wesley Special, I requested gloss black glass. At extra cost, I also ordered Cape Buffalo horn knock tips. The only problem is that the horn is gloss black and does not even show up any different from the black glass.

Taped a 5 inch piece of orange fly tyers thread to the back of my upper limb. Watch it constantly to keep tabs on the wind.
