I like it all, but I really like those ipe and yew underlays and the leather overlays.  Sweet tips too.  Beautiful bow!
"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

That is one fine bow, looks perfect in every detail. The braced and drawn profile are all business and the finish, skins and tips are all beauty. The whole package here. Nicely done Pat.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Wow Pat beautiful bow and beautiful work as always. Lots of time and work in that bow, it might be your best yet but there is one other that I am partial to as well.
May all of your moments afield with bow in hand please and satisfy you.            G. Fred Asbell

Thanks everyone. She shoots as well as she looks. I gave her the name "Lil' Thumper" cause thats how she shoots.
Kenneth, how is Elke doing these days? I guess no elk for the Gormans this year.  I did shoot(.308) a doe at Chris Cades a few weeks ago so we have meat in the freezer for this year.

Not that's a thing of beauty!! I love everything about this bow. Those curves are spectacular. It's certainly been worth the wait. I too, want to pull on that string  ;)
