Don't ask me why cause I like dark colors better, but I like that white handle. I think this is a tie for your best bow yet. ;)

Is it a lot harder to build a bamboo backed, and bellied bow, compared to a bamboo backed only bow? :) Plus how much more expensive for a blank?

Very Cool Dave. Can't wait to see it in person.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

I will bring one over next time I come over.
Bill ..  Yes it is much more dificult to build than just a bamboo backed bow..I dont build any of these for sale I was just playing around and learning how to do it..

David...beautiful bow. Too bad I did'nt see it in time to vote or it would'nt have been a tie. No offense to the other guys of course. I like the white handle as well and the shape all the way around looks killer. Great job buddy.   Danny

 ;D...and I are that good friend! ;) 8)   Thanks again David. I haven't had a chance to shoot it but I did add fur silencers(not that it needed them) and a calfskin strike plate and rest. I have cuddled with it a bit though! ::)
