I'm glad to see a pic of that little peanut! Solo cute!

Bow looks great. I like the color to.

I guess you like the big ash. I tend toward smaller ash, but I'll admit they're less.. stable.
Tiller looks great.

Well there's nothing quite like a good piece of Ash that'll bend over nicely for you and keep her shape despite time and strain.  Especially one that'll put your arrow right where you mean for it to go!

btw - what kinda wood in that bow made of?

P.S. - I had to get on here and grab some of this low hanging 'pun fruit' before JW Halverson showed up and took it all!

 I'm surprised you didn't make it a nice even 7 foot!  Really putting a lot of stress on those limbs at 76 inches >:D. just kidding I actually have a nice piece of oak I was thinking of doing the  something similar to that. Beautiful as usual. your daughter is a doll and can't wait to see her marshall and see how much is changed in the last year

I like the looks of that - very nice.  My first few boards were all ash - still have several pieces.  Might have to get one of those out and try for another ash.
Enjoy the hunt!  Mitch
