Don't sweat it, Kelly. You and Stiks have done a fabulous job on this trade. Organization is tedious and time consuming but you've got it licked! Thank you very much!

Kelly you can mark me as a happy camper!!!  My bow from Caleb Swisher arrived today.  She is a bamboo backed osage and 57# @ 28" and very sweet looking and shoots as good or better than it looks.  Thanks a million Caleb I truly love it.

Thank you Olin (WestTexan), this is the best bow I now own.  Now I just need to learn to shoot as well as it does...

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Walt, if I can pull a few strings here. I will see to it that you get my name in next years swap:) Walt, that bow is fantastic.. And the tip overlays are just great. ^ 5 Roy

P.S.  I love how you positioned the arrow rest to have the contact point directly above your hand contact. That is how it should be, Walt.

Citycop

Beautiful bow Walt. Sure wish it wasn't wrong handed.
