That's a great bow.  I need one just like it around 70 lbs. for a friend.  I plan to someday get around to it but who knows when that will be.

Sweet bow, it's got a great profile

You must have a bunch of little elves workin around your shop to help you spit them bows out that fast. :o
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

I appreciate the kind words fellas.

Kenny I don't have any elves, but Santa did bring me a nice belt sander. Tillers a bow in nothing flat. :)

I like that wide limb profile.  Looks like it took zero set.  Nice bow!
"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
