wow, Mike, that looks great.  I will have a PUP in the house in a few weeks for my youngest son.  I have not told him yet so the suspense is only killng me, not him.

Kevin here it is,  I just need to sand it more, apply the finish, and make some arrows to go with it.

It's 62" long, 47# @ 28", bocote and brown glass

Hey Mike sell a bow and buy a new target.Thats gotta be the most worn out target I have ever seen.Ive seen month old road kill thats in better shape...LOL    :thumbsup:

Yeah, that target is pretty much done, I've since bought a new one.  One of them foam block broad head targets.  Actually that picture was taken nearly a year ago, since then I've pretty much shot that delta buck in half.

My buck target became a doe when a large 10 pointer came into my yard one rut and tore him up:)  It was funny.  A week later I shot video when another buck came into the yard to check and see if she was a "hot" doe!  He was a shooter as well.  I guess maybe I should take that old target buck out with me when I hunt ;^)
