Nice one. I have to say i like your very distinct flavor you have in all your bows. I see them and can go "yep thats a goat bow no doubt about it". Funny part is i have no idea why. Ether way, nice work

The "Wizard" strikes again.  Just nothing to gripe about with this bow.  Love the way the skins graduate darker toward the ends.  Fine, fine, fine!

I like how you took that skinny deflexed stave and made it into such a smooth bending bow, it has a nice profile with the recurved tips. Rawhide at the tips is cool and the snake skin back sets it off too. Nice bow Ryan.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Beauty! Really like the photo setting as well and the way you handled the knot. Well done all the way around.

Ryan, you sure know what to do with yew. That thing is a gorgeous little killer.

"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
