That is a great Bow! the thing that catches my eye the most is the way you did they handle wrap that turned out very cool ;)
Is this bow making a sickness? or the cure...

Thanks ozzy.

Thanks Greg. Get after that elm. It's great too work with.

Thanks again muffin. 8)

Thanks will. I have to hope for my snakes to dry that way. Nothing compared to the snakey staves ypou alkl get.

Thanks soy. The handle wrap catches my eye too, but in a bad way. I am tempted to redo it.

Thanks pappy.

Thanks Jon. I have another stave with heartwood showing through on the back as well. Should be pretty when its finished.

Thanks arrow, Ryan and okie.

By the way great bow.  Sometimes I amaze myself by taking some great photos. You either have it or you don't. Your photography is excellent, could that be your calling in life.
