The rabbit lost his tail cause the fox tricked him and told him to stick it thru the ice to catch fish he became stuck and the bear snatched him out by his ears leaving his bushy tail behind and streching his long ears... Cherokee story "how the rabbit lost his tail" :)

I hope you guys like it ... this one was hard to get straight , i have no power tools ether so antlers were tuff lol . Its a super fast and deadly acurate shooter though and next year i hope to drop an ELK with her.  I was thinking of entering it in the bom contest but ... idk . I have seen ALOT prettier bows on here lately :)

I almost forgot this little knot fill i did on the upper limb ! Its green colored pencil shaved into powder and mixed with 2 part epoxy I did it in this color because it was Saint Patrick's Day I was working the limbs down and I plucked out a small pin  Knot and I decided to fill it with epoxy and color it green for Saint Patrick's Day :-)

Nice looking bow Jessi! Keep up the good work. The green is a nice little touch of color. Kinda a cool idea with the colored pencil dust.

thank you man, I made it heavy on purpose because usually I find at least with English longbows when I work with Yew it tends to take some set and I guess you could say it breaks in a little bit and loses a few pounds so in case it does that I want to end up with at least a 60 to 65 pound bo I want to use it to take Elk with

Looks good, hope you get a chance on a elk this fall, I'd say that bow will get the job done easily.
