That is a beautiful ironwood bow. That bow will not take a second seat to anybody. Thanks for sharing.

Don't see how you could make it much better-looks great. Good profile, good tiller, just the right length and weight. Looks like a good hunting bow.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

That's a beauty! You certainly are emulating some of the best bowyers in Pappy and Marc. Jawge

Very nice work, You done that piece of wood justice.Tiller looks great and the grip and finish work
looks good to boot.  :) HHB is a very good bow wood and makes an outstanding bow,I would
say it is one of the best wihite wood out there. :)

A very fine bow, I like this shorter bows with flipped tips.

Thanks for all the comments it means allot.My first bows looked awful and shot even worse.Pappy I would agree.This is my first out of this wood but so far I am very impressed.  Here are some pics of some knots on the belly.I have shot over a hundred arrows out of it and they don't seem to affect anything.   Thanks
