All these comments on the grain, well they stand out and I like it too ;D. Maybe your onto something, burnishing before stain, hmm. Great lookin bow!

wow thanks for the kind words guys! i hold yall in high regard, so it means alot.  ;D  the stain actually was alot darker, but like i said it wouldnt take, it just kept comming off, so i buffed the whole bow with 0000 steel wool. i was pretty sick about it cause i really love a dark bow, but i guess it doesnt look too bad. Thanks again!
