I will try and post more pics of the bows I build.. I was in a hurry heading out to meet with Bob to give him his bow and snapped those shots before I left. I didnt down load them and look at them till it was to late to get another full draw..  :-[  I will do better next time... I got a new design in the works that I think some of you guy's will like.. ;)

You da man David :o looks awesome. Looks like its dipped in liquid glass. Really like the dye job on the boo as well. As far as tiller goes I stopped judging your bows by the tiller. The tiller is always great so I just compare them by how nice they look. ;D
