Still one of my favorite wood combos. Such a hard hitting pair.

Thanks again guys

As to the green.  I used an aniline dye

Even if you lived in the US Matt you wouldn't be able to look at my bows since I don't live there.

Yes I'm still able to pull back a few Lbs

Fantastic work, sweet profiles and nice finish.
Only thing I would have made different is the color of the handle leather, but that's just me ...

What Druid said Marc. They always look perfect. I don't think I could draw a picture of one better. Just beautiful profiles as always.
