Thanks for posting the closeup's Shaun. Great job! I've never done a wrap on the handle like that...where could I find some info on that style wrap?  :)

Very nice looking bow! We have a pear tree in our backyard, and I've been eyeing it up for the last couple of years. The top is really starting to die off, and I'm hoping the Minister of Gardening will give me the green light to convert it into bow staves. Fingers crossed.  8)
