Hard to beat the tiller on this one. I really dig the simple bows. Nice work.

Really nice bow! Red oak is such an underrated bow wood.

Really nice bow! Red oak is such an underrated bow wood.

I agree if treated properly, but it sure is a bitch to work with if your design and tiller aren't flawless. Thanks!
