Mike, I'm obviously on a steep learning curve but it is a pleasure not a chore. Thanks for the advice regarding string silencers - I've been looking for info on the correct placement. As for the nock height, I've gone with the 3/8&quot; position and all appears well. Brace height adjustment will be dabbled with over time - she is presently at 7.5&quot;. Books are my downfall; I've browsed through the Asbell info and will commit some of it to memory but, before deciding on a 'style' to pursue, I will read the Ferguson volume. That's just another of my idiosyncrasies - gather all info known to man and still make a poor choice <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. This weekend I'll try posting a pic or two; i appreciate your willingness to look the bow over <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. As for the next bow, the wedding anniversary is less than a month away<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>!!
