Wow! The finish really allows the beauty of your careful work to come through. You can really tell how you didn't rush anything. Congratulations on a truly exceptional bow.  8)

Yea i know Simson. I had a sour face for a reason. When we first arrived at the location for the pics i slipped and fell in the water. lol I had to head back home and get changed. Hence the mad face.Able to get it done that time.

Thx Parnell yea i am pretty excited. I have been shooting her more than my other two hunting bows right now. I usually shoot a much heavier bow but this one shoots so sweet and draws so smooth. Now who is going to get to go?

Beautiful bow!  I enjoyed reading this post.  Ain't it great when an experiment yields such good results?  That never happens to me....  I usually end up sanding and scraping and trying again.  lol  Great photos too.  Looks like a sweet shooting bow.
