I was hoping for nicer weather for the pic's, but this time of the year in Wisconsin that's as rare as a sensible politician.  Couldn't get my daughter enthused about taking a picture of me actually drawing the bow in the rain.  But who knows; there might be a sunny day yet this month    :rolleyes:













Thank you Macbow, Roy, Eric, and everyone else for the advice and tips.  Really happy with the way it turned out and the way it shoots.  That's a gnarly, old mulberry in my yard.

Sure looks good. If it shoots well for you that is all that counts.

Nice

I guess it's OK:) ^5

Thanks guys.  Tiller probably would have been better except Roy's Tillering Hotline is long distance for me.  You gotta make that more user friendly.    

Excellent! Well done, Take5!

Very nice!

Oh yea!

Guess it is a bit stiff at the fades.  Oh well, next time...

Thanks again guys!  This is a terrific forum.    

That looks great.  I like your tips.

Yes it is stiff at the fades, ya should have called me:) Other than that it looks sweet. You won't lose but 4 or 5 pounds if ya get them fades bending more, but that's up to you.

Think I'll leave it be and try to get the fades bending better on the next one.  I'll have some pic's taken before I do the finishing on it too.  I checked the draw in the mirror on this one, but just didn't catch it.  Hope to start the next one in a couple of weeks.  I'll be calling, Roy  :-)

Well done!

It's not really bad.
555-555-5555 call me next time:)

Thanks twitchstick!  I've shot a few hundred arrows thru it and it is holding up nicely.  Tips still have a lot of reflex and the bow has some zip to it.  Thanks again to Roy, Ron, Eric, and everyone else for their help and advice because I know that I couldn't have figured it out without your help.  Still think that's long distance for me Roy :-)

The reason I keep making more bows is 'cuz the way I tiller it's good to have spares.

looks great to me! BBO is my next project after my osage selfbow im slowly chasing a ring on.
