Yew longbow/American flatbow - 58#@29" 68" ntn

Here is a bow I just wrapped up. A nice strong long yew with a little character.
I hope you like it!

"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Some wild divots and valleys in that stick. Looks like you worked it perfectly Carson, nice bend with some unique character.     I like it.
