Very nice looking bow!  I like how you slimmed the handle area.

Great looking bow!
Is there anything better than wandering the earth with a stick and string in your hand?

Awesome looking bow. Nice job on the skins. Could you post a pic of the bow at full draw so we can see all of it? The tips are missing, and it's hard to see your tiller. Thanks!
