Beautiful! How wide are the fades and is that tapered from fade to tip? The bow profile resembles an old Gilman Keasey I have and I'd love to try to copy the design.
One of the cleanest looking bows I've seen for awhile. Excellent!!!
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

Very nice bow, great bend and beautifully tillered. Sure looks like a hard hitter too.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Gotta love those yew longbows bending right out of the fades.  What is on the back?

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
