I haven't sent you the bill for the mulberry yet.  ;D I've got a couple sister staves to that one that I'm looking forward to working on when I get some time.

Wade,The mulberry has only Tru-Oil on it. This piece has some nice coloration on the belly.
David, She's 49 1/2" long t/t, 1 1/2" at the fades and out 4" then a straight taper to 5/8" tips. It is basically a flat bow with kicked up tips. The handle is 3" long and placed in the center of the bow and the fades are 1" long. With the way this piece has worked I think a bendy handle bow with kicked up tips would be a perfect shorty bow for my 26" draw.
 Steve, that bill was "paid in full" . Don't you remember? ::) ;D
Pete, I've been using string of all types for handle wraps and I love them. They are cheap, effective and attractive. Set in epoxy it makes for a good, waterproof, textured grip for hunting situations in all sorts of weather.     Pat

Thanks Pat! I like that bow. With sinew backing I think you should be able to get a much longer draw out of it too.
