You Sir are a fine bowyer with a keen eye for bringing the hidden beauty in wood out for all to be able to appreciate. I have been away from here for awhile, and don't post much; but had to compliment you on your craftsmanship! I like all the bows I have seen of your's Simson, but this one is my favorite so far. Just about the time I start thinking that you have used up all the tricks you pull out some more! My hats off to you. Thanks for sharing.
Makin fine firewood, one bow at a time!

I like how that is a stiff handled bow that still looks like it is a bendy-handled job.  love the fingergrips too.  beautiful.  you are a master.

WOW simson.Stunning bow.Does the cast of it impress you?You have a tendency to go outside the box on practically every bow.Good way to not get bored making these bows.

Wow! That bow is a 'Looker", and really Ballsy making those slices in the limb tips.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

The bend in the limbs looks flawless Simon, smoother than silk. Those fingers on the grip are beautiful as well, especially the way they contrast in color compared to the fumed color on the bow. The whole bow is stunning really, another one of a kind masterpiece from you. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Nice Simon, you are always coming up with something different, and really helping to spur everyones imagination. Carving the finger grips into the handle after fuming is just another example of this.  Beautiful bow, and that tiller is flawless!
