Bryce, I don't know what I could say that would be better than all of the post before me. But if I could find the words I would.

That is totally amazing! And an absolute inspiration to me! I think I should quite  complaining about all the crooked staves I have and just let some shavings fly! Well done bud, WELL DONE! Patrick

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Speechless after the photos....after all the previous posts not much more to say other than that is some outstanding craftsmanship.

That is such a beautiful bow!  I wonder what it looked like before you pulled it out of the woods.  It makes me re-think some wood I've seen in the past , and left it in the woods. Oh and I think I saw my cousin in the background ;D
