Pappy, I was thinking and now my head hurts. Ill just ask the question then I can stop thinking.  ;D I have noticed that a lot of your bows have a ton of snake in them, but from the side profile they show none.  Do you straiten them so they are strait from the side view?   Justin

yes I do justin.I put them on a form and take the propeller out and flatten them if I can.Its not absolutely necessary but it sure makes the tiller easier to see.This one had a hump right out of the handle kind of like the one GregB's had just not quite as bad.
You can't always get that out but you can get some of it.

Going to take it out for the real test in the morning,got to pull some stands and do a little
Turkey scouting,opens next week,so I thought I would do some stump shooting.Been so busy with  the shoot we just had and the Classic coming fast ant had time except on the practice bails.
I'm going to take it out into the real world and see what it is really made of. ;D

I took it on it's Madden outing Sat. to Ft.Campbell for a shoot,you talk about looks it really got them.It shot surprising good.The cut in made all the differences.Sometime they just need a little something else.I don't want one that just looks good,it's got to shoot well also.Thanks for the comments. :)

That is a crazy bow. It makes other bows look so dull and lifeless. Great work. Im a newbie but it doesn't take an expert to see that.
