Ahhhh, now that vacation is here it's time to get back to posting. And Raghorn, Cody and Trap you'll be getting those PM's I owe you.
But first, I needed this bow like a hole in the head, but I just couldn't put it down. It's got great lines (although I haven't had the guts to string it yet). If it weren't for the scuffing on the sideplate, I would think the bow is brand new.
I figured you guys would get a kick out of it. I guess you're pretty much toast if you accidentally sand through the fiberglass on this one!
The string is 58" so I am guessing it would be a 62" bow, no?
Another step back in time, and it's another Michigan bow, too...Sweet! :thumbsup:

And Raineman, what's up with that string? It's braided and coated like a dang clothesline:

Complete with string grooves:
