That's cool, do you have closeups of the art work? Looks outstanding.

Quite the worthy candidate for July Self Bow of the Month, I'd say.

Very nice recurve, Chaetaux! Hickory makes a nice bow if moisture can be controlled and obviously you have done that. Your decorations are very nice. Not my style but nice none the less.    Pat

Is it my imagination, or is that set build into the bow? The strung and unstunt photos look about the same. Do they have salt water curing in your country? :)

not the same , but you have right - bowstring could be a little to long. Salt cure - noo , but we have mud cure  8)

Very nice.  Did you make the bow?  Looks a lot like something Bowmonkey(Russell Bartlow) used to make many years ago when LOTR bows were in demand
