Thanx for the salutations ya'll,  I been nose'n around this site for about a yaer and finally decided to register.  I've been shootin a recurve on and off for about 10 years.    One of these days gonna get somthin purty nice and keep it, rite now I'm shoot'n a old bear grizzly that I traded a boy out of.  It was lookin ruff when I first got it but I sannded it down just enuff to remove the finish,removed a couple wood screws and put on a few coats of poly satin.  turned out purty good, have a lotta fun with it.

That Grizzly is a fine bow. Glad you saved it from an ignominious death.

By the way, that Grizzly will work just as well as any custom model.  It may even have some magic lurking inside those old laminations.  8^).
My bows are all old.  Just like me.

MAN! whatta welcome wagon rite.  Thanx ya'll, sure nuff.   FLETCHER: I live about 100 miles east of the hillbilly hollywood, in the Mt. Eagle area.     KILLDEER: when I got the bow the finish was in bad shape, I sanded just enuf to remove it and no more,took my time.   I thought about a camo finish but figured it would take a lot away from it.    
         
  I enjoy tinkerin with it, it just feels good to shoot it,  you can hear a little plunk from the string then a swish of feathers in flight.

  So far only thing I've took time to hunt with it is squirrels, didnt bring any home but it was fun anyway.     Ther was 5 or 6 diggin acorns from the ground, I drew down and released, missed,  it hit the tree behind him and they all feeze for about half a minute then go back to work, I got off 2 shots before dark.  it's like ther thinkin " I've never heard a tree make a noiselike that ".
 
 Like some one said,addictive.
