Cool looking bow and a smooth bend, nice one.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Thanks guy's! I appreciate the comments especially about the  tiller I'm still my own worst critic.

Timbo the handle is pretty small for my taste to. But it doesn't bend there and it's comfortable in the hand. My friend is kinda short armed and small handed it should fit him pretty good! Patrick

Sweet!

Well I got a chance today to spend some time with my friend. He came over and shot with me for a bit. I let him use two or three different bows then handed him the one I made for him. He was surprised and you couldn't get the ear to ear grin off his face. He loved it and said that he could shoot it all day without hurting his shoulder. I think I was as excited as he was! Patrick

   Feel proud.  You did right by the wood and certainly did right by your friend.  Great job.
