Thanks everyone. I really like the way this one turned out.
  @ Del,  Yes the total taper is .006" I had to do some tillering to get the poundage down but I wouls say that that was about right for a bow of this dimensions.

 @ GB, I sawed this hickory fully quarter sawn from a very straight 36" stave.

Nice looking bow Cody.  The glue lines are great.  I love the string keeper.  The bow I recieved from Pat had that same thing.  I still need to make one with it.

Sweet bow, Cody. Nice Job!!
