Brad,,That bow came out great. I knew you could save that skin. It was meant to be on that bow. Remember, age is just a number. Congrats on another good bow build.

Your daughter sent you a whole dead snake in the mail !! :o, No wonder it smelled bad, I thought it was just the skin!  I wonder what my family would say if a dead snake came to my house in the mail (lol).

Beautiful Bow,

Real nice artwork, and a good job saving the skin!  Remember - old is 40 years older than we are ever going to be!  Nice bow, too!
