Pappy I built one you could drop a half dollar through the top mid limb. It had good cast and a lady won the Arkansas longbow shoot with it. But it was full of shock!!!! Lots of character though.

Another great bow Arvin. I never had a doubt you would turn it into a great shooter.

It’s going to my leather man Monday. I am going to have him put a nice leather wrap on the handle. You have to know your limitations. 🤠🤠🤠the bow is deserving of a nice wrap.

Very nice bow, Arvin. I love character bows especially.
 I like your buckle collection too.  :OK

Nice bow Arvin. That’s a great spot for a knot. Like you said. Keeps the shock low. Should be a shooter.

Love the JD Jones look handle wrap... you have a keeper there, but I'm sure someone has already talked you out of it.  LOL  That knot is in the perfect location for sure.  Great job Arvin.   :OK
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...
