Don't lay that green one down in the grass you'll never find it. :) Both are very nice.

That side view unstrung is really nice. The bows look very slim. I bet they shoot fast!

David, They look real good in all aspects, r/d curve, outline, tip size and finish...Are you able to purchase the wood from a lumberyard? I know you have made a few of these.. It's real good to see ;D

They look great David. You are a bow making machine.  Justin

David,  Very nice bows.......

 but couldn't help but wonder if that cut bush in the first picture became a bows or arrows!!  :D

  I've trimmed some of our bushes for arrows, but then who here hasn't!!  >:D
