Awesome job! Love the wood.

Thank you all for the kind compliments.  :D

Dave, you've seen this bow before, it's what I usually shoot at Sylvan. I just got around to sharing the pictures here on PA.  ;)

Congrats - very nice bow.
Tiller is excellent, set is low - what more could you ask for. I also use leather dyes, they are perfect for wood.
Well done.

Really nice looking bow.  Love the design left by sanding off the dye.  Sounds like you've found the right mentors.  Did you live in MN before?  My family has a place up near Ely.  I've seen the course offered over at Grand Marais but have never made it over there.  Doesn't help that I've been overseas for most of the last 20 yrs.
