Very nice bow.  Looks almost identical to Gordon's masterpiece. Congratulations.

  Beautiful bow, you had a good mentor, and that hazelnut is nice.

You are so right Mullet. When I read Gordon's build a long, I knew hit wasn't the first time he'd ever built one on them. Your right bout the Hazelnut too. It worked like Butter. Smoothest wood I ever worked. Thanks fer the compliment.

Wow that really looks nice, I bet Gordon is blushing right now.  I studied that build along and you did a bang-up job.  Very Impressive.

Outstanding bow.  I love its slim profile.  It looks so snaky.  Great tiller.  Wonderful all around.
