Very nice Kris.  She will blend in well here in florida and I have just the right peg for her to hang on.

Thanks for comments.

This ain't the swap bow Kelly but my swap bow is ready for a handle wrap and a new string. I signed it tonight and put the specs on it and put a quick coat of finish over that.

Great looking bow.  What kind of juniper is that and where does it grow?

Chisler That piece came from Oregon, I got it from Keenan. I just know it's juniper. Not sure which juniper.

I really like it...If you want to send it to Montana I think I could manage to get it back to full draw on a rabbit or two.  I might have to burly up with some PBR first though....

Wow Kris that's a great bow!!!

That underlay on the belly tip looks cool. Does it have a purpose?

Great job!!

Coaster I put the underlays on her to help hold the flip in the tips.
