Ok, now I've seen some really ugly bows on here...but this one takes the cake, by far. I'm getting real tired of seeing people post such ugly, off tiller, sloppily made bows in which it's obvious the craftsman just hacked the thing out and didn't care about appearance or finish. I mean, the snakeskin job was obviously not well done, and the snaky osage stave probably only took 15 minutes to establish the ring from tip to tip. I'm gonna post the ugliest bow I've ever made and I'll bet it will win bow of the millenium!
Seriously, that is one bad a$$ bow dude! I remember one time I was hunting with a snakeskin covered bow and I set it down beside me when I sat against a tree. I happened to look down a few minutes later, and the first thing I noticed was the snakeskin on the bow....and I jumped! I felt pretty silly afterwards because my bow actually scared me for a second. Now if I had your bow at that time, I would have jumped up, hauled a$$ to the car, burned rubber for 200 yards, eluded the cops as they tried to stop me for exceeding the speed limit by Mach 17, slid into my front yard sideways, ran into the house and then hid under the bed. Only then would I have realized
I think that was my bow that scared me. Of all the bows I've seen, that one looks more like an actual snake than any one I've seen so far. Superb job!!!
