That looks good! Let us know how the finish holds up. Mine has some, well, love marks.

I'm new to the trad gang and saved up for a whistler then go hit with an unexpected expense. I know if I put it off again it's never going to happen, so ordered a Prairie Predator from Mike, 62" 48@29 1/2 with bocote and caramel brown glass.

I have some 300 spine carbons which are probably too stiff and some 400's that might work but I'd have to steal them from my kid. I'll have to figure out everything else I'm going to need and acquire over winter.

just received an AWESOME Northern Mist Sprague from Steve and plan to order a Ramer or a Shelton as well as a Monarch from Big Jim.

The Ramer might be my all time favorite bow.

I ordered Carbon Fiber limbs for my Black Widow PCHII

Like those laminates on that stalker.

In April I purchased 3 new to me longbows on the used market, locally from the same source. I'm a leftie, so that's a rare occurrence. I bought a Black Widow PL III 58# @ 28, a Harrison American Wolf 52# @ 28, and a Bighorn Custom Ramhunter 60# @ 28.

I sent the PL III back to Black Widow to reduce the draw weight by 3 to 4 lbs, re-tiller it, and have it refinished. It will come back to me as essentially a new custom bow.
