Your bows always have a certain elegance to them Gordon.  Beautifully made.

Stunning.  And so graceful in it's simplicity.  And inspiring... I really need to try building a bow.

Excellent example of a fine, Osage Hunter. Very nice Gordon as usual.

Great looking bow, as usual. If you have time after the new year we should get together cook some elk steaks and tell hunting story's. I have a story that involves two days of packing out an elk and a grizzly. Greg

   I always enjoy seeing your work Gordon, hard to explain but it seems your work has matured over the years. Not just the workmanship but your ability to maintain the integrity of the stave you started with. I enjoy seeing a bow that I can still see the stave in if that makes any sense.
