Nice tiller, sweet simple bow....
I'm a bit ambivalent about staining wood, but then if you are hunting, you don't want 'em white, sort of toying with the idea of decorating a Hazel bow I'm just finishing....hmmmm dunno.

nice bow well done, never made a bow from birch but heard it wasnt the easiest of woods so you made a good job looks like very little set and a good tliler
