First bow I ever saw in The Traditional Bowyers Bible was the gemsbock bow and it's all I ever wanted to make.  Two hundred and some bows later I still have not made the gemsbock bow but you made one and it's your first bow.  Man, you really know how to rub it in a guy's face!

Nice work, by the way.  We all love good bow porn here, so post some pics of it at full draw!!!

Nice bow!! Welcome to PA. That 3d target looks fun to shoot. Do you get to shoot those things where you are from?

Very nice bow.  As others have said, it would be excellent to see a picture at full draw!  Any stories ?
