That's one of the best looking bows I think I've ever seen! Really like that natural dark streak in the belly.

There is alot to like about this bow, from the color of the heartwood and sapwood to the beautiful tips, but for some reason the full draw picture didnt show up on my screen.

Wow thats a beautiful piece of work there, love everything about this bow. I'll be coming back to look at this one later when I've
settled into the easy chair for the night. To many fine details on this one to take in on one viewing session. 8)

That is a nice piece of art work  ;) I have a 12 inch red elm tree that is clear and straight for 6 feet growing on my property in one of the hollows that will be put to good use this fall after looking at this.
Thanks for the picts,
