Thanks again guy's! Pappy is was pretty sweet to loose that first arrow. Thanks Josh, I will try to get that done this evening. Don't know if I'll do any good but would love to try. Patrick

I had my doubts about this being your first. Only because the tiller is near perfect.  However I saw your signature and it looks like you are an eagle  scout.  I know most of them are quality people.  So I congratulate you on your first bow being a really good one.  Thanks for posting.

Looks like a real nice bow Patrick. I'd never think that was anyones first build, you did a heck of a nice job man.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Thanks guys,  I really appreciate it. Sasquatch I get that all the time but I will promise you that it is the first one I ever finished. I have broke several others in the process of making this one. Patrick
