That looks like it's gonna be sweet, ya know at times I think "I wish we had snakes like that here in Michigan, that way I could get skins anytime I want" Then I get my senses back And think "Holy crap, I'm glad we don't have snakes like that around here I'd hate to meet up with something like that in the woods"
Can't wait to see your bow finished.
