I found this neat old bow on the auction site several months ago and it seemed to say to me.  "If you can get past my looks, there's still a few good shots left in these old limbs"

I couldnt resist the temptation. When the bow arrived I strung it up and after deciding that it did indeed have a few shots left, I contacted the late Al Harford and ordered a decal package for it.

Thanks Al, for your help in resurrecting another beauty.

My first look at the bow, Some of you may have seen it.






Here's what a little TLC did for the old bow and there truly are alot of good shots left in those limbs.  
Mike from "the Nocking Point" had a Bear quiver bracket laying around and sent it to me for the project. Thanks Mike

Thanks Guys, it's a really fun bow to shoot.  

I'm not quite ready to head to British Columbia and shoot 60 yds at running Caribou with it yet, but it's a neat bow.

Beautiful! I've got one in the works that will be my small tribute to Al. He helped me out with the decals on a real beater! I'll try to get it done soon and show her off. CKruse

Thanks Cam, Looking forward to seeing yours as well.  

Al's decals really put the finishing touches on a reginnish project.

I was born with nothing and I still have most of it left.
