Very cool bow.  Can you tell me about the cow horns...kind, length, preparation?

Killllllller looking. Awesome profile on that one. That horn is beautiful. There's a couple down the road that have two longhorn cattle. I eye their sweet sweet horns often.

Wow Kamil, that's really nice.  I love the shape, and that thing is doing some serious work at full draw!
