I love it!
just like your last bow, it made me jump back, scream out, break my neck twice, and just getting back on my chair to say 'wow'!

I really want to try those boo backed boo's, got a little test piece yet to be glued up.

A fantastic bow, robustus. Again it is an inspiration.
I'm looking forward to see more pictures.

That's crazy how that thing can bend like that. Great job

Your making a fine looking bow, something about the curves of those things that catch my eye.

I really like this bow. I think its a great design and I bet its a lot quieter than a regular recurve the way you did the ends.
 Seeing it unstrung shows just how good this design is. I want it :)

Incredible! I don't see how wood can bend like that and hold 60lbs. You inspire me.

Beautiful crazy, the way she's bending. I like that not so primitive backup on yer hip there too ::).
