Thanks all for the compliments. I'm extremely happy to have this one behind me. HHB is a great bow wood, but it's not one I'm used to so there were moments of challenge for sure. All in all I'm extremely pleased with my first attempt, but happy to get back to the yeller wood.  ;D

Very nice, Scott. HHB has to be one of two whitewoods I like to work. When I get home I'll be posting a HHB I was hoping to hunt with this year.

Looks well worth all the time it took you to finish it.  >:D

Personally I dig it a lot. Some of my most "unique" bows came out of things like what happened to your snakeskin and such, but I make it sound like I meant it to turn out that way. :laugh:

Nice save on those skins!  Great work on that bow.   8)

I hear ya, in this case the Painter was God cause that snake has some serious cool factor. Wish I hadn't buggered up the edge cause tip to tip was when it looked its best



Sometimes you just gotta quit crying long enough to think creatively and make lemonade.
