That bow is amazing, Pat.  I've got mine tillered out, and finished the nock overlays yesterday.  Just need to do some finish work to get her ready to shoot this weekend.  I should have it in the mail within a couple of weeks.

The only finish on this bow is hand rubbed bear grease.

That explains why the dog in the last picture has that "I'm gonna lick you" look!!!

Thanks guys. I have had 2 successful locust bows lately. Both are Eastern Woodland style bows. Maybe I should stick with them.

I put the 8th coat of tru-oil on mine yesterday.  It's shining like a new car.  I picked out a piece of leather for the grip and hope to have it finished this week.  Then I can send it to .......... ............ ;D

I was home with a sick young'un today, so I was able to get mine stained, put my handle wrap on, and put a couple of coats on it.  Gonna put as many arrows through her as possible this weekend to make sure it's not gonna 'splode and ship it out next week (hopefully).

Its been good fun watching the progress and the final bows made for the trade.  I almost joined this year but I knew I had so many irons in the fire that I didn't want to stress about the deadline and I live in Thailand so the shipping is a little bit of a problem ;).  But I'll try for next year.
