OK, I got her done and all dolled up!  ;D She is 61 1/2"t/t, pulls 56#@26" has hemp cordage handle wrap set in epoxy with floppy rest and cow horn tip overlays. Since this is going to WildKatt I though a leopard skin pattern would be appropriate.  ;)

love it Pat, she's a real beauty!  That leopard turned out real nice.  very clean lines and fine craftmanship (of course). 

So what's going on with that nock profile, don't think i've seen one look like that on a longbow?  Did you leave some meat for string grooves?

k-hat, I always leave the tips a little thicker so I can narrow then. I could probably take some of that off but its too late now.  ;D
Thanks Kip.

Another great bow Pat.  You are a bow making machine.  Must be that new Stave Master?  Congrats on another great bow man.
