Get the impression you're quite artistic. The bows are beautiful and I like your avatar as well. Hope things aren't too bad in 'bama. Man, this is turning into a wild spring!
Good luck,
Stan

Alright, awake and thinking straight about to go back into work.  The limbs on one are crossgrain camo, the other is bocote with a bocote strip through the center of riser.  One riser is actionwood the other is dymondwoood.  They both pull 60# at 28.

As far as the tornado's.  It is real bad. It hit about 15 miles south of me.  I was in the garage working on a bow when I got a call to go in and man the emergency gas turbine generators.  They were already on when I got there.  Huntsville and Decatur will be without complete power for weeks.  Some residents may have some by now.  The death stories and loss are sad. A boy on my sons travel ball team lost 4 close friends.  He had to go to a funeral every night this week.  Don't be fooled by a tornado, they come from no where with the force of a hurricane.  Anyway hope you like my bows.
