Looks pretty good from what I can see. You posted full draw pictures from an angle, and a different angle, how about one from straight to the side. It allows us to see the tiller better and better appreciate the bow. Justin

What you need now is some buckskins, a pinto pony, and a herd of Americon Bison !!! And a whole lot of Balls !!!
That looks just like a Plains Indian bow - if you paint it up some. How does it shoot?? Looks like you nailed the design.
Great Job on a cool bow !!

LOL yeah I guess I could paint it up a bit....u cant see it but the arrow head is knapped from clear glass... as far as it shoot its a tough son of a gun but Im sure its got enough speed to penetrate a buffalo  "TATANKA"  That thing snapped me in the arm earlier I dont know what it is Id rather get snapped by my longbow...that hurt!!! :'(
Cheers!!!

Nice shortie. Not really Plains style though, looks more West Coast.
