Cat, Yes be careful what you wish...haha...my wife has a yew elb, a yew Pit River bow and now this one...she has quite a collection going....good thing I am a bowyer otherwise I'd be broke buying her bows.

Jeff, The Cyuga are a small tribe still in your region....they are a branch off of the Iroquois.

Very nice, it looks great.  I'm working on a replica Cayuga myself.  I hope it comes out 1/2 as nice as yours.  Fine job.

I'm all for more NA bows and that one, sir, is a winner! Thank you for sharing. You've got my vote so far, too.

Very nice!  I'm just starting to learn about some of the NA bows, and examples like this really have me wanting to try one soon.  Well done!

Cool, if you change your mind please let me know.   :)  Looks like it woulda been a great contender.
