I'm working on one similar to that, right now. I hope it turns out as good as yours. I just laid out the bow today. Time to cut it out tomorrow.

Bub your the board king! Nobody makes a finer board bow buddy. The tiller is killer.

finally got her done, hickory with black walnut and black locust handle area with locust  reflexed tips with black walnut overlay's. this one started out with a little deflex but with the flipped tip's set's dead even with the back of the grip and shoot's smooth,and deliver's my650 grain boo arrows with authority ;D, and it's very fast with a lighter carbon arrow, all in all i'm pretty happy with the outcome and my son is gonna have to decide if he want's a leather grip on it, i like the wood look, hope ya like her, Bub
