Nice work man.  You did a great job for your first bendy :)

Love the style and the bow, nice bend and cool finish work. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Tim, yes, the back is rippled.  The tree it was harvested from had a LOT of ripples just under the bark.  I made a self bow from the same tree and named her "Miss Ripples"......yeah, I like the looks too.  Certainly not typical of all hickories.

Very nice. + 1 on the comment about how little set that took without any heat treating.

That thing is very nice.  Perfect bend also. That is a bow that I want to copy.

I look forward to seeing #11 because #10 is really a killer! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you everyone for all the positive comments.  I had no idea that I'd get this kind of response.  Makes me want to go out in the shop tonight and work on another bow.  Many cheers to all!

That's a nice bow and you did a good job on it. You would be surprised how much one can reduce hand-shock just by narrowing your tips a little. I really like the woodland style and have several of them I hunt with. God Bless

Hey Pete, thanks for the nice comments.  I'll try narrowing the tips on the next one.  Since this was my first woodland bow, I was trying to keep the dimensions close to what I've been reading about these bows.  Wonder why our native Americans didn't figure out that wide tips would rattle your teeth???
