Great looking bow!  Sweet tiller and I notice your dad ranked it #1 in his bow stack!  Great work!

Mucho elegante!
 How deep, and narrow is the handle? Length of fades?
Outstanding job.

Thanks guys!  Just got back from the boonies and back into cell service. BOM! ...dad will get a kick out of that.   :)

hamish, I would need to measure it, but I am guessing the handle is 1 3/4" deep and it is about 12" from fade to fade.
