I agree with ifritz! Very nice little bow and that weight and draw length would fit me great! ;D

Thanks guys.  Here you go Jeff,



While I was at it I grabbed a shot of the limb tip.   As always, the overlay is mesquite.

I must have missed this one earlier George.  That's one good thing about the BOM contest - it gives a guy a chance to review a lot of the bows that have been posted.

She turned out real nice!  I can't believe the draw weight you got out of such little wood.  I might have to try something like that with some of the elm I've got seasoning.  Thanks for sharing!

If you submit that for BOM I know which one I'd vote for. Great job there and keep the eye candy coming.
