Strix-ly speaking, that is an owl-fully nice bow!

That's just excellent!  Love the carving, painting, and detail.  Beautifully done.
Yeah, I remember when we had a President who didn't wear a tinfoil hat.

Thank you once again for all of the positive comments. The many fine bowyers here have never failed to inspire. I'm simply doing my bit to share as all the rest that grace these fine pages.
   I thought you might like this one ,JW! I was thinking of you as I was posting .
   The schedule might just be clearing up for the summer, Mr. Loranger. We have to get together in the shop.

The danger with something like that is that people will be afraid to shoot it for fear of breaking it. Too nice!!
