Man that's a sweet looking bow.  I dig the back.  Nice work on the grip too.

Nice bow, great tiller. I really like the textured appearance on the back too.

I have a hornbeam stave that Keegan sent me a few years ago. Not as straight or knot free as the one used for this bow. I guess I should give it a try.

Thanks everyone for the replys. It means alot to get complements from the vets who have been doing this alot longer than I have. I love making and shooting these bows, and thanks to my father-in-law, RPS3, I have a lifetime hobby to enjoy.

Very good job Lefty!
Looks sweet to me
I don't have a Muscle wood bow on the wall so I better get in gear and get some cut ( I keep getting side tracked by that yellow wood )
