Jon still working on strings,the problem with being good at something is you get a lot of request.

Will working on another Osage bow,that boy can't stop.

I was just relaxing and watching.

The Persimmon stave before splitting,it didn't look like it was going to split that good[as persimmion a lot of time does ] so I cut it on the saw.

That way we for sure got 2 good stave's.
