Thanks guys. I love the quote "it should be taken out to fulfil it's intended purpose". I agree it needs to see the light of day,feel the gentle breezes and have a release every now and then.

Wow, that is nothing short of stunning.
Beautiful work, I love the beaver tail shelf pad and the horn over lays here and there. Those accent lines running through the riser and continue into the limbs really shows of your talents.
Any info on where to buy a raffle ticket to win that beauty?
I guess it's ok to ask that here?

I was fortunate enough to see and hold it just this past week. It's even nicer in real life! Abe was kind enough to donate a bow to the Manitoba Bowhunting records club again this year...just to show you how kind he really is! I just wish he'd start putting some detail into his work though....Ryan

I quess I could try and add more detail but would you be so kind then to send me a detailed map to your bear bait? Good to see you and your kids along with your dad last week.
It was a fun project, hope I haven't gone to far on this one.
