Nice story and the bow looks incredible !
Once I could get my hand on such a piece - stave. 300EUR! I really had to say no. To much money for a lot of troubles (--).
Hm, but to have one of those.... (W

Pretty sweet bow! Not my cup of tea making character bows anymore but I sure do appreciate it :)
There was a super snakey stave on ebay the other week...

Yeah, this bow is definitely a prized possession. I already have a place of honor to show her off. Just thinking about where she came from, remembering the 100 year old fence post just blows my mind. I thought I had it in me then I realized it was above my pay grade. I'm very thankful to Will and Pappy for for creating this silk purse from the 100 year old sows ear.  :OK

Here is her place of honor, over the door between the sunroom and living room. My wife suggested it and I agreed with her.

I have one similar 55 inch unbacked except bullsnake skin with a handle like this..not quite as much snake as this one but the handle area is real close. I used the offset to make the bow center shot.. mine isn't a take down either.. with the handle area as such makes it is a great shooting bow.. killed a 143 6/8 8pt with it though, cane arrow and stone point.. best to date ...  gut
