Love this bow. The belly skin is a great touch. I always like to see what new idea you come up with. I just found a decent source of yew down here in "Oregun". Hope to post some pics soon.

Congrats Ryan! Well deserved! Patrick

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

I initially thought I was going to see a bow with skins on the belly, but those belly skins do look good. I bet it was somewhat of a challenge getting them to lay flat.

I've though about doing a full snake skin wrap on a bow, that would look awesome

Dude, You totally have to do a full skin wrap. Do a build-a-long so the rest of us mooks can see how it's done.
