Thanks so much everyone!  Don't worry Pappy, I can't knap 'em too sharp yet, I'm just lucky to get something roughly triangular! ;)  I did grind down the edges just in case though.  Del, if he chews on it, I don't know who will be hurting worse, him or me once my wife finds out!

Well, I'm happy to report that Charlie was born on Thursday night and both he and my wife are doing very well.  We just got home from the hospital and are glad to be relaxing (as much as possible) at home.

Very very cool! Congratulations to you and your wife. I really like the pictures. But I think your going to have to make several more bows for him. Looks like a big boy! Patrick

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Congrats Adam !   Nice bow but I disagree with badly bent,  I believe that he may be shooting at six months, but won't be shooting well until at least 10 months.
Pretty nice that you can make a bow and a hunting partner.
When I stop learning please put me in a box!

Thanks! It won't be too long until he's shooting better than me, I'm sure.
