Nice work Chris.  Looks like a sweet shooter.  I like those dark osage tips and handle too, great idea.

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

Another fine bow Mr. Pearlie! I was wondering when you'd have it done.
Really cool how the osage contrasts.

Hey Pearl Guns, ever made a batch of homemade ice cream and forget to put in the vanilla extract?  It's really not good!  Trust me.  I partially melted the ice cream batch, added in the necessary vanilla and put it back into the mixer for another session.  MUCH BETTER!!!

That being said, even plain vanilla can be downright delicious.  Call this bow Two Scoops and put her to work!

Thanks to everyone of you for your comments, they mean a lot to me. This bow was made to help me fight my Bowyersitis. I have it bad. The weight was made low for an easy draw. The length left long-er for a smooth draw. And the grip contoured, center cut and exact for a repeatable draw and shot. Im really hoping a winter of shooting this bow will get me back in shooting shape. Ive been embarrassed on the range for 2 years. This bow will be my shot savior! If all goes well, the 50-52# twin I have floor tillered will merge right in and Ill be at my fightin' weight again.

Thanks all!
