Nice simple bow Weylin. I like it.

Sweet bow, Weylin. I love the tips!

Thank you, Chad.  :)

Thank you for the kind words, Howard.

Thanks, Pat!

Thank you, Drewster.

Sometimes even wide open summers fill up faster than you can blink. Thank you, John.  :)

I think the skins would have detracted and distracted on this bow. Thanks, Accipiter.

Thank you, Peacebow Coos

Thanks, GB

Thank you, Josh. That's a real compliment

Thanks, Del. I think my next one is going to be a true ELB. I'll get in touch with you for some advice

Thanks, Bob

Thank you, Pappy

Thanks, Frank!  :D

Thank you, Greg. I have a bucket of horn scraps and it's a real random grab bag. I picked a winner on this one.

Thanks, Hrothgar

Thank you, Aaron.

Thanks, Chris

Thanks, Kenny

Thank you, John. I learned that lace pattern from John Strunk. HE makes some really nice handle wraps. (and bows)

Thanks, SLIMBOB. I really liked that last one of yours that you submitted to BOM. That was a looker.

Thank you, Tommy

Hahaha! Thanks, Parnell.  ;D

Thank you, Donald.  8)

Thanks a lot, Jon!

You've made a great bow! Elegant in all profiles - a plain beauty! Leatherwork is fine too.
That bow was worth the long wait.
