 Rich, every time I see one of your bows I say I'm going to try a shorty. I vow to myself on the next bow I will. Thanks for the inspiration and the posts you made in the How To section on short bow tillering again. Keep it coming I appreciate your work.

No problems with that shortie in the blind!! Real sweet bend, Rich. You sure get everything out of a piece of wood!! :o
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.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments, These type of bows just really fascinate me, because of their efficiency, in the simplest form possible.

It's a sweet looking bow, Rich.  I'm getting more and more inspired to start fiddlin' around with pigments.  Great work and I hope it brings you luck!

I'm diggin' it Rich!  You are the master!  The carved tip is a brilliant touch.  Subtle, yet eye catching in a classy sort of way.  Josh
