Thanks everyone. Bob, the grip is just leather at I wet formed around the handle and wraped tightly in cord until dry.

Really nice Cody. With so much to complement you on, I'm going to stick with the grip. That just blows me away.

Cody, that is a sweet bow.  I like all of your bows, but the artwork on this one really shos off your talent and set it apart.  Very nice porcupine!
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

As if your bow making talent wasn't enough, now you delve into the art world, as well. Naturally, both are a tremendous success!! Nice job, Cody!!
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
