Hickory bow build.

I’m enjoying following this build.  That horn belly looks really nice!  Looks like you got a great glue line between the wood/horn interface. Look forward to seeing what weight you end up with and how it shoots for you. Good luck

It may not be the bow you set out for it to be, but you sure have it looking nice at this point. I certainly admire your determination and hope it pays off.

Thanks fellas.  Now that I’m done with maple syrup I can get back to it.  ;)

I was wondering how the maple syrup was going. I know all about those priorities and how important timeliness is in doing them. Curious though. Are you finished with syrup or just caught up to sap? I haven’t talked to my buddy lately. I think he just tapped his trees last week.

We are a small operation here.  We tapped our trees in February when we had that week or two of mild weather.  That first couple weeks are what give the best syrup in my opinion.  It’s a beautiful light golden Color and the taste is very good.  This last week we’ve noticed that the Color got darker and decided to shut it down.  Still tastes good but just personal preference.  Sap is still flowing here and guys I talk to are still full steam ahead.  We’ve had enough this year and got lots.  Just boiled up my last gallon of syrup last night.  It’s a fun hobby until it’s too much like work.  It was also getting in the way of my preferred hobby/fetish!  ;)
