Boy, That slicked up nice Chris. That handle is stunning with the finish on it and I bet the pics dont even do it justice.

I'm trying to get Carson to trade me a character yew for a couple Osage staves. Hoping it comes out half as nice as this one. Very smooth.

A tear just fell from my eye. What do I need to do to get that bow from you Chris?

Nope. There wont be any permanent handle on it Jon, Bill. HOWEVER, I am a hunter first and foremost and build bows for that singular reason. If it doesn't work with gloves or when damp. Ill use a rubber roll on grip temporarily. If I had any skills at all, I would have gnurled or stippled the grip. I couldn't get myself to risk anything on this wood, it was too pretty to chance.

Lets see: 50 good to premium yew staves, or maybe a new 2015 Ram 1500 Bighorn with the eco diesel! Yah, Ill take the truck!

Man Chris that sucker is polished and pretty, drop dead gorgeous actually.
 I know its a nice shooter too guys since I was lucky enough to send a few arrows out of it over at Paul's place a few weeks ago just after Chris finished tillering her.

Correcto McGregor. Did you notice I added a bunch more tip reflex? I bet I added 2" after we parted...:)
