This is a real attention getter and a serious candidate for July Laminate Bow of the Month. Thanks for the good pictures.

Could be better? ;) It will be hard. Horn wood sinew - this is highest challenge and this bow is realy high class.

Those bows have always held a great fascination for me, not so much as to want to take on the job of making one, but I have always liked them, and that one is a beauty by any measure! Is the horn put on in sections, with some kind of interlocking joint? Maybe I missed it, but what kind of glue do you use on the horn? Thanks for showing it.

Thanks for the inspiration. I am working on a couple horn composites, but probably won't be done for at least a year. Wish they would turn out as beautiful as yours
