Here’s a quick update on this bow.  Added a new stain job and redid the finish.  I added some string pads (Buffalo leather), new yellow and black d97 string and buff leather handle wrap.   It shoots very well and I may use this one this year from one of my tree stands with a rail.  This should work out nice as it’s fairly short bow at 54” ntn when strung.  Here’s a few pics of the bow as it sits now.  I’ll have to wait till my wife gets back to do a full draw pic.  Sorry.  :).

Few more…

airkah:
I really love your finishing work on this one!

Have you shot it through the chrono with the slats in? I'm really curious how this performs.

superdav95:
Thanks Airkah  Very kind.    I haven’t yet but it seems fast.  It was a 40lbs bow prior to the slats.  If I were to guess it’s around 45-48lbs now.  I’ll do some shooting it tomorrow and convince the wife to be my cameraman.  😀
