"Very nice. What method do you use to splice the horns together?"
I use the lap splice method with wood dowells, I made my own hide glue for this project with sinew and rawhide pieces. worked very well.
Thanks for the comments guys.

Very nice Eric. Love them bows. I agree totally about the amount of time as I have two big horn sheep horns that I cut out and are now clamped to a board. Talk about work! Great work Eric.

Eric, I noticed the lightly recurved tips. Is that needed for string angle or is it simply preference?
Love it when you post your bows. Nice work.
