So when a guy gets into a trade with Greg he has in his kind what he hopes to get right? I have wanted one of Greg bows for a long time and after a few meetings with him it just had to be be done. I never said what I wanted out loud just hoped for one of his awesome scalloped bows. This one is awesome!

Greg I'm so glad you posted this one. The bow is awesome for sure. The fact that this Hackberry bow holds reflex after shooting my 26 inch draw being only 57in. Proves that Greg knows his sh $ t.  The design and finish is excellent as his Greg own personal style. I'll take some more pics of this beautiful piece of art and post Em tomorrow for you all.
Thanks greg. Good trade!

Thanks Drewster for the nice cpmpliment.
Thanks Bob and hope hope to see ya again up north next summer.
Bushboy, Okie,  Jodocus & Bryce, thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback and kind comments.

Thanks for the kind words Dave but I think received the nicer bow in this trade and it was just what I wanted too. Deciding what to build for you was easy because I had noticed that your eye was always drawn to the single sided scalloped hickory bow I had hanging among the others at camp in Tenn.  :)
Glad you like it brother, I sure feel lucky to have one of your beautiful snake backed osage statics.

There isn't much I can say that hasn't already been said!  You make a great looking bow Greg, but that tiller is so perfect, I had to put in my two cents.  Lots of us have bow building books laying around the house and there are plenty of examples of good tiller pictured in mine.  Nothing in any of those books bends any better than that one!  You do inspiring work brother.
