That is one heck of a bow Josh! 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Always enjoy looking at bows from GunDoc posts! You seem to have a knack for making a style that I really like out of some pretty unlikely candidates. Thanks for sharing.

Gun Doc, That's what I call a PA bow right there...Taking what nature gives you and turning it into a bow, looks like you did just that. Excellent job working it all out! Cool looking set with the tommy and all...

Well thank you very much fellas!  This one didn't really garnish much attention first time around.  I'm a little surprised that it is catching some folks eye now.  Pleased, but surprised nonetheless.  Yeah Danny, we need to at least shake hands and howdy a bit. Maybe I'll make it to ojam one of these days if we don't cross trails before then.  Thanks again!  Josh

Yep...I sure did Amigo.  I believe it was in the August 2011 self BOM.  I don't believe it got many votes, but then there were a lot of bows in the lineup in those days.

Oh ok. Too bad. It's a dandy bow.
