Falcon, that is a beautiful bow! Love the color. How do you fade the colors ?

Excellent profile. How many shots did you put through it? It's really held its reflex well.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words.

So far I have put around 500 arrows through it in the past couple months. 

Tommyredfox- as far as the fades go,  I used both mahogany and burgandy leather dye.  I like to take a very small lint free cloth with a small amount of stain and start with the dark end and blend it as the cloth runs out of stain.

Very nice. Reminiscent of a Cayuga style Eastern Woodland bow.
