Those are good looking bows! The selfbow may look a little stiff just out of the fades on the brace photo, but okay other then that. Hard to tell with just a brace pic. Sometimes the tiller is difficult to judge with selfbows, especially character self bows.

I know what you mean about the finish work taking longer, same with me. :)

Really nice bows!

Excuse me, I have a question here: is paduak the same as bloodwood? If not, can you or anyone post pictures that show the difference??

Sorry for the sidetrack...  ;D ;D ;D
Thanks.

from my understanding paduak and blood wood are two differant types of wood.
i have seen blood wood that was almost pink it was so light and i have seen it as dark as this paduak
but i do have a piece of blood wood thai think mat\y be a tad bit darker red than this

when the wife gets home and retakes my full draw photos i will also get a pic of the two woods together for ya  medicine wheel

Great looking bows. Be sure to give me a "heads-up" so I don't miss the full draws and clearly identify each bow so OldBow doens't get confused.

They look real nice. They inspire me to go make a bow.
