Man, that's a relief! If I made you mad, I wouldn't have anybody to call and get advice from. You think you'll be able to make it to Clarksville this spring?
  Finnish, I use something like 100, then 220 and finish off with 400. I sometimes buff it between coats with 0000 steel wool. This bow actually needs a few more coats on it.
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

It's two different bows. The one on the mantle is mine, the one with the deer is from a sister stave. They're virtually identical except his has beavertail on the grip and he shoots his better than I do mine ???  I forgot to post a picture of the tips, I'll try to do that tomorrow.
