The bow looks perfect for her!  Good job Dad.  ...but that quiver is purty kewl too!  I'd have never figured a skunk pelt for a quiver option.

Same, that quiver is every bit as awesome as the rest of the kit!

Looks like your little girl is gonna have a lot of years of fun with that bow. Beautiful bow; I always like the snake skin backings. I think that kind of gives the bow a special look; very nice!

Beautiful work.  She's a very lucky girl!  My daughter is turning 5 this April and I think I'd like to give her a bow to mark the milestone.  Thanks for the inspiration!
Lord, grant me the courage to attempt this bow build.

And the wisdom to listen to the wood.

Thank you very much for the nice comments!  Unfortunately, it's looking like she'll have to wait to show it off as there is nasty ice storm on the way.  The 4h shoot hasn't been called off yet, but it will be I'm sure.  That'll give me a little more time to make her some new arrows to go with it, so it all works out.  Thanks again!  Josh
