Sweet take-down, Bryce. She's got a really nice bend. I like those tips, too!!

Very Classy.  8) I can't wait to see it in person.  You sure did make quick work of those billets.  Well done.

Nice bow Brycey boy! I bet the yew feels good with the extra weight added by the sleeves. Yellow wood can get heavy.
