In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Great pics, I love the prep, set-up and tuning. Looks like you have a hunting partner. Enjoy the little stuff.

Could you help us a little with the knot?

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Morning Killie,
John's right, that is a link to the thread, Ryan showed a way to tie an adjustable knock for tuning. A lot easier than the crap I was doing.  Joe

Good luck! looks like you're ready for the journey.

I actually shouldn't have said "made" with the quiver.  All i really did was take some left over vinyls and skin it with a design I liked.  Its a regular Thunderhorn Boa with the black plastic hood.  Joe
