I like the profile of that bow, smooth and graceful.
Whatever you are, be a good one.

Sharp bow Simon, cool stitch pattern, nice horn tips and very graceful flowing lines. Nice that your wife enjoys archery and knows a damn good bow when she sees one. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Yes Greg, fotunately my lovely wife enjoys archery. And I enjoy shooting with her. Good thing is she tolerates my excessive bowery  ;)



Thank you all for your nice compliments guys.

Nice bow. And a great # to give the wife :^)

Bob - I'm not sure that the Adult-rated meaning of the number '69' is understood the same in Germany as it is here, ...but I noted that peculiar coincidence as well when I read the thread.

Simon - Nice bow indeed!  I particularly like the stitching work.

I love seeing your bows Simson, they always have just that extra touch that makes them so unique. That handle lacing for instance. Next time you do one of those could you do a build along? Outstanding work as usual.

Thanks so much for posting this!  I have some guava with cracks in it like that. I have been waiting on it because I was afraid it would break. This increases my confidence ten fold.

That is a beautiful bow, with a fine tiller. An inspiration for sure!
