She's a beauty Manny. I've grown to appreciate yew. One of my 2 hunting bows this year is a yew self bow.   What is your opinion? It can be delicate wood for someone that is used to bulletproof wood(me).
   What are the particulars of this lovely stick?     Pat

Its a nice bow, but in case you haven't noticed Manny has taken a vow of silence regarding this forum ???

Beautiful bow, heck of a tree too.  You seem to be able to make all types of bows. I keep watching and learning. Thanks for sharing your skills.

Another great looking bow Manny.  The hair is getting a little long though.  ;) Justin

Beautiful bow.  Great job.  What kind of monster tree is that behind you and where do you live?

  Another nice one Manny. That piece of yew looked like a challenge, but I think you are kinda used to that. That Yew sure has a gold hue to it. Jimmy, that's a Banyan tree, in the Ficas family.
