Hey stiks yeah I'm doing pretty good and am for sure going to the Classic.  I'm sure you'll be busy but you better look me up anyway lolol

Thanks guys.  Gotta go play fireman today so I wont get any more done to my trade bow til thursday.  

Get her bending or I might go hunting for piggies.

Beachbowhunter: I did use the bandsaw with a metal cutting blade to cut the g10 material.
Right now it looks like when I install the inserts, they will be into the g10 about 3/8".  That is about what I was looking for just to give it some more strength!

Guys,
I'm torn on what to do. The bar is set so high here that I'm questioning my ability to build a great bow, about all I have left to do on my trade bow (maybe) is put specs on it. The bow is smooth drawing, pointable and shoots a 10gpp arrow in the mid 170s at 28".

The bow has an purpleheart/walnut i-beam riser w/ purpleheart belly lams; maple,glass, and walnut core; and a black glass back.

Shall I ship it or not, what ya guys think?

Ok thanks guys  it's gonna ship out this afternoon or tomorrow  morning. Hope **** ***** likes it. He should have it Saturday or Monday.

Cory

P.S. sorry for giving everyone the frustration of waiting till sat or Monday. The wait for it to be delivered will be maddening for me too.

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Dang Cory!!! That's all I got to say...

Worked on one of two possibilities today. Got the other limb thinned down some on the snakey elm stave. Also shaped the handle some...If I pull this off this is gonna need skins and gonna look awesome. Best maybe I have turned out but there is a long ways to go.

Got the first 3 shots out of the snakey,decided to put cocobolo tip overlays on it the glue shuld be set up tonight....hope to have kt shaped up and shot in by the end of the weekend....hopefully the skins will be here and on the bow sometime next week  

[heartlandbowyer]

Ok **** it is shipped, hopefully you are shooting it Saturday morning.

[Swissbow]

Holy cow ! There are some very nice bows coming along. I haven't started yet and don't even know what I'm going to do. But there's a lot of good inspiration here.
