Very nice! Is the handle wrap a cotton twine? It is hard to see in the pics. Just curious cause I like the look. Thanks.

Nice bow Steve-O! Like that color a lot.

That's an awesome looking bow Steve.  Really nice.  The photo is cool too - makes me think that the Rules of the Pool could easily be enforced by a lifeguard with a bow. ;D

Well, "Mingo" has found a great new home, lol.

Thank you so much Parnell. It is a beautiful bow, and shoots very smoothly. It was raining last night so I just shot a few arrows off the porch and made the kids run out and get them, lol. But I look forward to using it more. Now I just need to build a bow rack, since my "Weapon Corner" as the kids call it, is getting too full.

I have never shot a bow before without a rest so that might take some getting use to. Any tips? Should I wear a glove? or is there a trick to keeping the arrow from scraping your hand?

Thanks again!

Glad it arrived safely!  I'm on vacation in TN so sorry for the delay.  The handle wrap is just cotton, Doob.  I like them the most in my hand.  I'm not much of an arrow shelf guy.  Like the raw stuff but I suppose its all practice!  Hope it brings you happiness and some fun.  Like I wrote, I think that bow will pick up weight in your neck of the woods.  Especially during the winter!
