Stickhorse (Bob Freese) generously offered to build Palm tabs for the St. Jude auction this year. After the auction Bob contacted me to discuss rh/lh, size,material preferences,etc. A few days later he sent me a tab to try. He told me to shoot it a few days, trim it as needed and then send it back to him so he could make one just to my liking. After shooting and trimming it, I sent Bob a message that I was about ready to send it back to him. He replied that instead sending it back, to just make a tracing of it and to include any measurements or comments that I had and send the tracing and notes to him. He also asked if I would like something special in the way of leather. Well yesterday I received my new custom Palm tab:

It is more than I expected. The beaver tail matches the grip material on several of my longbows. The tab fits great and shoots as good as it looks too. So I ended up with 2 tabs for my bid. Thanks so much Bob!
Very cool!
Glad it's working out for you. Thanks again for your donation for the kids.
