Nice curves on that one! What's the string material? It looks really thick to me?

 I like it. That's a really nice looking bow & I bet it shoots good too.

That's a nice build - I Love Black Walnut! It has a great smell when you're shaving it and the grain patterns can be crazy beautiful. Great work!

Leonwood; it's an endless-loop style string with 8 cords of Irish shoemakers linen served with mercerized cotton.
 I agree with the general consensus that bl. walnut is an under appreciated bow wood.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone
