Over 50 years, and I can honestly say I've never seen one like this.

Assuming yellow garden spider?

My one boy has been loving him for photography, and my wife informed me he's calling "him" Bob LOL

You are correct. Yellow Garden Spider. Not a danger to you, and very good at bug control! They are beautiful. We have them all over here in Dallas / Fort Worth area.

Years ago we used to have lots of them around our area every Summer. But I can't recall the last time I have seen one. They disappeared a long time ago.

Female black and yellow Argiope. The male will be about 1/5 her size and make his web in the outer part of her web. He then goes into her web and makes the verticle zig-zag pattern. I'm not far from you in Forsyth co and we see them occasionally.

That's been my experience too.

"sewing machine" spider, because of the zig zag web. I almost grabbed one today.
