Nice job on that one. Sweet bend!!

Awesome bow, and as a father of a son myself, I know what that bow means to your Dad in more ways than just getting a selfbow.

It does bend through the handle. It scared me last night when I finally drew it after it was complete because I heard creaking and I later figured it was just the leather breaking in.

Nice work Matt.  Looks like a shooter.  Way to make the old man proud.
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

You guys are the biggest ego boost ever, haha. It's so nice to hear about how nice a bow you put work into turned out. If only I hadn't waited like a week before his birthday to start on it. Thank you all again.
