Very nice bow Mike. Looking forward to seeing it in person. Maybe I'll have to "hire" Pearl to help me with a piece of yew.

Nice work on that bow.  Congrats on a job well done.  The first pic the bow looks green on my screen.  LOL

Redhand, me too.  I see bright green. I thought what the heck did you do that poor piece of yew? I know Mike better than that, I hope. The other pics reassured me that the wood was left to shine on its own. Funny how lighting and cameras can alter things like that.
