Selfbowman:
Bill that is a gorgeous  bow. The feathered one. The finish over the feathers may have cost you cast due to mass weight. Bill the bow is so gorgeous sometimes distance is not everything. Arvin

Danzn Bar:
Thanks Arvin...but a bow that,s pretty and doesn't shoot is like lipstick on a pig.  I want bows good enough to hunt with ..... but that's another subject for sure. :)

Oh I think that's a hunting bow if it's 40# . The shine might give the game a scare.  :)
Then there's the scratch when you have to drop it from the tree. But the beauty will always be there. And it's yours. Arvin
