She came out beautifully, Shaun. The tiller is right on.
   Shaun did a build-along on the new TradGang thread(Bowyers Bench) showing how he put this bow together with a takedown sleeve. Great build along Shaun.  ;) 8)    Pat

Great utility bow for river bottom whitetails. You sure nailed the tiller. Bookmarked for Aug Self BOM, too.

Got to thinking about what Old Bow said about this being a good "river bottom white tail bow" and about using it with my Gillie suit and was inspired by several recent bows posted with paint. I used the primitive spray can method with leaves as stencils. Bow has a new name - Stinging Nettle

Oooooo... Looks sweet.  I like the idea of a hunter than can fit in your quiver.
