The sharper corners are easy to lift a splinter. And if you wait till near draw weight, rounding those corners can easily bring you in under weight. Thanks guys, Wasn't sure if this one was going to hold together with all the knots but I've had it to 31" several times on the tree and she's doing good. |

That is not fair Keenan. It is like that time when I was a kid at the county fair with my cousin, and we were peeking under the girlie show tent, and if that one big guy would just move, the mystery would be solved. |
