Thanks, all :)  Prairie Bowyer:  The bow is 63" ntn, if I remember right.  Also, I think you'd have better luck with a trapped hickory backed hickory than bamboo backed hickory.  Hickory is miserably weak in compression compared to bamboo's tension strength.  There are lots of great boo backed hickory bows out there, but I'm sure wary of the pairing.

Very nice, I especially like where the snake skin fades into the tips.

Inspiring.  A very high level of skill, quality and talent.  Good job man.  Thanks for doing the build-along.  Awesome bow!
