Hey Howard. Good to hear from you. Hope you find Mulberry as pleasing as I do.
Thanks Simon. Your #100 was an inspiration to me and a model.
Ben. Thanks man
Badger. Thanks. I’m proud of this one. It shoots really sweet.
simk. Thanks!  The handle was thin. About an inch deep. Mulberry bends easily I found, so dry heat and a few clamps.

Thanks bassman.  Like that little number you have posted.  I really liked that Plains style bow you did earlier this year.  Very nice.

Just a few last minute thank you’s before closing this one out...thanks to PatB for offering his advice on this one throughout. It was very helpful. Thanks to DC. Appreciate your input when I called on you. Thanks to Marc and Simon. I relied on the R/D bows from you both as a model to get this right. Thanks to Curt “tipistuff” for letting...no, helping me cut this from his place. Thanks to everyone who followed me on this one. Appreciate all the input, and encouragement. This one was plain ole fun!

Sidewinder.  Thanks.
bradsmith2010.  Thank you.
Don.  I've done only a bit on the recurve.  Getting the profile even right now. It's close and I will work on it some today.  I have a bit of deer rawhide headed my way to cover the sinew with.  That stave was a mess when I started and it is still womperty  (if that's a word), but It's gonna become a bow I believe.  Not a pretty one, but a shooter.  That's the plan any way.  Working a bit on a new Elm bow as well.  It's been drying for a few months and I think it's ready to floor tiller.  Excited about it.
