Off course...when I say fast arrow I mean NOTHING Like the numbers Kenny posted  :(
Geez...and on top of it his bow is that goodlooking too!
Who do I have to bribe to have my name "drawn" by Kenny next year?  :D

Johan, your creation doesn't look so shabby to me. Your secret recipient will be lucky as well as happy.

Johan, not to shabby at all, looks like a keeper to me......Dan

Johan, I think you have a good un goin there!!

My numbers wouldn't look so good with fingers and my 12 gpp huntin arras, only a way to compare to the bow before!  

K30bowfisher That is going to be a nice looking bow, you know ****** is going to just love it.

Balding Kansan everone loves then wave snaky bows cant wait to see it finished

Johan van Niekerk you got a good one going too I bet its going to hold its owen against any bow made during this swap.
Some really good looking bows in the works, I know there is a lot of hoping going on now, by the ones that have not received their bows.
Can't wait to see all theses finished and completed.

 What are the humps on the bely of the bow?

Thanks for the encouragement everyone  

The "bumps" on the belly are pieces of tape and paper. Because my bows are reflex-deflex I find it difficult to get the design onto the bow itself. So I tend to draw out my design on paper and then stick it to the bow. I also leave it stuck there right until I'm ready to start painting  
It reduces a lot of trial and error in the tiller process.

Had a package from 3rivers on the front porch when I got home from my second job tonight. Tomorrow after school I'll get started on so-n-so's bow. Shouldn't be long before I post some pics. Haven't completely decided on a style yet but I do have some ideas.

Here's the finished pictures of my trade bow.  I've been shooting it a bunch and like the way it feels.  I wrapped the end of the kerf cut in the tips just for added security.  I've never had one give, but a good solid wrap is cheap insurance.  You can catch a glimpse of that plug patch in some of the photos, which still reminds me of a "beauty mark."  Anyway, I hope the new owner likes it; it should ship out next week.

Absolutely beautiful, 4est! Terrific lines and profile.

Great looking bow, I know ***** is just going to love the bow. Let me know if you ship it.

Man them some slick bows guys. I got to put some heat on mine today, I prolly wont mess with it much tomorrow but maybe I can get some pics up. Ha after the bow cooled it smelled like Watermelon....I'll pull the clamps off tomorrow and see what happens.

She's a classic, 4est! Well done...as always!

Well here she is 66" NTN right now gonna see how it goes might be 64 when I get done....Hackberry.

you guys are lookin great. i picked my osage out of the firewood pile at the inlaws , along with all the locust i cut and have been waiting to dry , along with a couple other sticks i picked up. all of them had little grey spots except the osage. hopefully its ok.


got a bunch of stuff organized in the garage and i have to setup a tree , but i guess somewhere to shave is first off.

Texan I finished up a mollie a while back from hackberry. It responded pretty well to heat and turned out to be fine bow.

I took my swap bow off the caul yesterday and letting rehydrate a bit probably start tillering in next weekend.
