Thanks guys.
Chuck I been hanging around a real rough dude by the name of Ed Scott. I picked up some real bad habits out there in New Mexico from him in January. I mixed some of his style with some of mine and am getting some real shooting bows that are about half as long as I used to make em and look pretty neat to boot.

I have been wanting to get out to Ed's for about a year now. I was very impressed with his bows. shooting looks and style are all very awesome. You are doing Ed proud with what you got going in your bows. Good job Mike.

I was going to ask are they yours or are they Owl bows? Ed does a great job and it looks like his stuff is wearing off on you. It looks like you do a great job also. I just own an Owl and love it. Hope no hard feelings,I love the way your bows look but never had the chance to shoot them.Some kids are going to get some great bows.Thanks Mike for sharing
