Crappy bow and you really got fat during your time off.  ;D

Beautiful! How wide are the fades and is that tapered from fade to tip? The bow profile resembles an old Gilman Keasey I have and I'd love to try to copy the design.
One of the cleanest looking bows I've seen for awhile. Excellent!!!

Now THAT was unexpected from you, Manny!  Guava, character woods, exotics, etc....totally in your wheelhouse.  But this yew bow is the last thing I anticipated from you.  And once again, you show off your high standards for tiller and finish.  Thanks for raising the bar a bit further!
