Yea, that's one of the nicest bows I've ever seen too.  Beautiful work, from A to Z.  Some great bows done this month.

Awesome job Pappy! I love the look and I like how you added the quote on patience. So true, and bow making has helped me to learn some.

Had to go back and look at the pictures a few times. Love the character, skins look great and especially like them over the side on this bow. Maybe its the timber rattler, but for a rattle snake skin, those skins look better than any I've seen. Would like to see a closer shot of the middle to outer 3rd showing the skins but don't go to any trouble, love what you've done already. Can you tell that I like this bow?

Very nice indeed and thanks for the adrenalin rush.

Ken, I think it's gonna take the self bow honors.  It just has a snakeskin backing, which won't put it  in with the backed bows?  It would likely take whatever class it is in.
