Title: killer fresh out the oven
Post by: RC on September 04, 2013, 10:30:00 PM
Got my first straight end bow ready for spray. I gotta thank you guys for answering questions I had. Ya`ll got skills.
 I`m sure someone that knows what they are doing would find several things wrong with her but man...It came out better as far as measuring and being square than any bow I`ve built..which aint a lot. Best thing is she shoots where I`m looking. If nothing happens she`ll be a doe killer in a few weeks...we hope.Thanks again,RC.

Ya`ll gotta ignore Hermon the pig and his buds and my junky junk room...

Looks great. That grip looks just right to me. You gonna put a leather grip on her?

Nice bow. I think Hermon looks like that Alf in a certain comic series. Bue--.

Great job RC. Just finished my first lam bow and also dished the grip very similar to yours. I find it very comfortable.

That looks great RC.  I like the critters on the wall.  I agree though it will look way better setting on a fat doe.  I sure hope you get one.  Congrats on the great looking bow.

X2 Looking forward to seeing her. So is this one going to the woods first or is "Mojo" getting first dibs?
