I'm all holy crap wow...how do you even tiller that thing?

Makes me want to go sift through the mulberry branches the neighbor just threw in the alley.

GW,

Definitely an interesting looking bow you got there.

Is your upper limb shorter than your lower limb?
Or is it just an optical illusion?

I like the looks of it over all, Snakey.
But I'm no expert on the tillering process for a straight limbed bow much less a bow this snakey...   :)

Very cool bow, Kristof. You have the eye of an artist with your tallent as an bowyer.
Well done....and a bow like that should be shot and not hung on the wall.  ;)

Now that's one super cool bow! I'm with Pat, shoot the heck out of it! It shouldn't be confined to the wall, looks like a meat maker to me.
