Making plans for another one.
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

That came out nice. Even from the pics it looks like both limbs are equal at full draw.You need some rattle snake skin to put on it.
