really nice looking bow, was wondering did you heat treat the belly?..if not thats an excellent unbraced profile..

I just got my self a stash of wych elm, never tried it before...but you have encouraged me to try it now!!!

Bubby, this is one cool bow! I like the way it comes together, the handle absolutely ties everything together, it has nice contrast.

  I need to learn about bendy handles more.  Done a few, but they aren't my "go-to" design.  But with what you just did, I'm thinking of all those elm trees I DIDN'T cut because they were just barely too short for my longish draw......  That is flawless execution at  that length and width.
