     Beautiful indeed! :o  I think even I would cry if that one had broken. :o :'(  Definitely glad it didn't!  Beautiful arrow also! 8)  You are quite the artist! ;)  It is indeed amazing how similar your bow and Mullets Southern Yew bow, are.  Again beautiful job all around on that one! 8) 8)

Thanks for posting the final pictures of this bow.  I enjoyed watching your build along of it.  Wonderful looking bow.
