Way to put that branch to work!!  Nicely done.
"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

 I really like the contrast between the sap and heart wood on yew bows. Nice job.

Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?
