My shop door is locked. It's all hush-hush!


I've been collaborating with a very prominent flight shooter :).  I'd be afraid boys, very afraid.

The only thing I find frightening is the list of excuses you're going to come up with for your sub par performance

I'm sure mine will achieve no high performance attributes. But maybe will acquit ourselves ok on the range.   ;)

Whew! That's a stout one Scott. I bet it shoots forever, but I think hitting a target will score more points :)

Looks cool! Maybe a prod in its afterlife?

Looks like a lot of fun guy's!  I've made a couple of tiny bows. Believe it or not, I made one from bradford pear that was 12 inches long and pulled 20+ lbs at 7 inches of draw. I shot the fire out of it. Then I decided to see where the breaking point was and it turned out to be at 9.5 inches. But I pulled it that far at least a dozen times. I may have a pic somewhere, if I find it I'll post it.
