Nice job on that one. The tiller looks very good.

BTW, the golf-tee rest is a John Strunk invention - I just use it.

Very nice,tiller looks great and nice finish work.Tips look good also.I don't usually rework many but sometimes it is well worth the effort and makes a bow you just like OK to one you love to shoot. :)

Very nice - looks like a good hunter. Absolutely a BOM candidate, too.

Thanks for the kind words guys.I'm really anixious to get started on another stave bow.The board bows are fine but theres something about doing one from a stave that just feels right.I'm suppose to be able to get my hands on the pecan tree I mentioned in a previous thread this weekend.I gotta go pic me up a couple of steel wedges.All gitty like a kid on xmas morning.This will be the first time I've harvested a tree for bow wood.I think I got the basics but as usuale any helpful advice would be apreciated.tradrick
