Those feathers are beautiful.  Unreal color coming from a natural source. 
I love looking at your tillers.  I thought it was a bendy handle when I first looked at the full draw.  A real beauty.

Incredible bow Bill. 

I can help with an article if you want.  I'll take pictures and document the process as you do it.  Either my place or yours. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Might have to do that Clint, be a good winter project for us, we've been wanting to do one together for some time now.
Got to get a bow finished to do it though...…..

We could fancy up one of those old nasty Pearly bows you've got :) :)

Beautiful bow! I love those turkey feather backings in the sun. I’ve done a couple myself and enjoy making them. I like your finish better though. I built up coats of truoil, which worked. But took a while. Yours is coated in an epoxy type finish over the feathers, correct?f

Love everything about it Bill... the overlays, the feathers, the tiller is spot on and that grip is awesome. Beautiful work as always.

That bow looks awesome and the backing really sets it off, I really need to try this out one day.
