Quality control was trying her best to keep an eye out in case that big dude came back. It was a tiring job on her.

Well the bow has got to have a new string, this one is a 12 strand and the bow needs a 14 strand with the heavier weight.

I was just patiently waiting! Great looking bow Tony. I one day would like to shoot one of them Carp bows....They look like a sweet ride! Nice job as always!
