I got my wife to take a couple full draw pics with her phone. This is a sweet shooter. I will get all the proper pics taken once I get the handle on there.

Here are some better pics. You can see it took a little set, the bottom limb more so. The stave was nearly perfectly straight, thanks Snag! The abalone inlay strike plate was my first attempt, and I think I can do a cleaner job on the next one, but I like the way it turned out.

Looks really nice! The tiller is good and the hand wrap turned out well. I really like the salmon skins on the yew. It makes a great color combo.

Thanks guys. Oh and Del, those nocks on the osage bow in the first pic are bighorn sheep horn, from a small ewe.

Have to get me some yew to try one of these days.

Gorgeous. I've been contemplating what kind of overlay's to use on my next yew bow and I think you confirmed that the white is a good look. Thanks for sharing!
