Great bow, wonderful tiller. I always split big timber rattlers down the middle for bow backing, seems a shame to cut out just the middle for bow backing and throw the rest away. I have 6 huge ones in the freezer now waiting on bows.

 Very nice bow, Love the snaky character and the unbraced profile looks great as well as the tiller. Congratulations
