Your bows blow me away Druid, this one is no exception. I agree that the heartwood is beautiful and the tiller is right on.

Another nice job by a very skilled craftsman!! :)

I have been missing your posts!  Good to see another one of your fine looking bows.  Awesome piece of elm and great craftsmanship, as usual.

It is elm, 67" ntn with some character.

"Some" character?  ;D  That's quite a lot of character, it must have been a lot of work to tiller. I can only hope to attain that level of skill someday. It looks amazing!

No matter how long I had to wait for one of your bows it would be worth whatever price I had to pay.  Every one of them has been a thing of beauty to behold.  Wonderful work, Druid, as usual.

Thank you all, my friends. I am trying to do my best with these bows.
Turtle, there are a lot of straight staves in my country but I do not like them very much.  :D My stash is full of character staves and maybe 2% are straight staves. They are boring to me. Soon I hope to present "Snake edition", few snaky bows of different strength and design.  ;)

I propose a challenge! I call it the Druid Challenge! Find the most Gawd awe-full stick that you can, and send it to Duid to see what he does with it. ( And I can come up with some terrible staves, just ask Ken Villars for those that know him ).  The person who sends Druid a stick he cant work into a bow wins his stick back! Bows sold to charity... lol good times right? And we could at least make sure out local Druid is entertained, and not bored of all those pesky straight sticks!
Tread softly and carry a bent stick.
