Thanks for the condolences everyone. I figure life is too short to take myself too seriously, just gotta have fun with this kind of stuff. If I was afraid to break 'em I wouldn't make 'em. I've still got more ERC lined up to be bows, love how it shoots while it holds together. She was a good one while she lasted, now just have a good excuse to keep making more! Think I'll try some sinew or hickory backing on my next cedars.
As for the flowers, her favorite were red or blue flax, stems left full length. They can be sent to any local primitive archery support group in your area. She was a big supporter of helping those addicted to get the proper help they needed.
Thanks again all, and hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and weekend!
Kip
