I searched for a few years myself and I thought I found the perfect fork. It was a perfect Y and beautiful. I worked my rear off to make it look just as good. When I shot it, it shot just awful, I could not hit a thing with it. I thought it just was a quirk with and one of my buddies wanted it so we made a trade. A little latter he told me that he could not hit a thing with it either. Both Blue Skeen and Ivan Glen told me later, that you should never judge a fork until you shoot it because some ugly ones shoot the best. -- Tex-Shooter

Yeah- Bill, I live in a woods, all kinds of trees, and brush, but I just won't cut nothing unless it looks just right, and usually when I start cleanin it up or cutting on it, I find some flaw or what, and just toss it, but this one sure shoots good, Think I'm going to make a switch to some theraband golds, or whatever i got laying around till I get it the way I think it should be, but then, how am i gonna have enough time to shoot everthing, AARRrrgghhh

Lord if I waited till I found a perfect fork I'ld never make one. Guess I'm not the only one making Husseys style forks. Great work.
