Me too. I like a bow without all the frills, just a well tillered stick. If it's bending properly, it's beautifu.

Thank you gentlemen.
This is the second one I've done with a camo back.  Got to watch out not let it lift a splinter.  I've found that you don't want long streaks of it connected down the back of the back of the bow.  Short runs won't lift.

That's a fine bow!  I like a little inner bark left on in spots...  makes for a cool effect.  Great tips and tiller - a good hickory bow is hard to beat.

I done this one for the gentleman that owns the local hardware store.  He's getting me a brand new Dewalt 13 inch thickness planer! I've been working for quite some time putting my shop together and this planer is getting me close to being set up.  I good jointer and I will be all set.
Thanks again for the kind words folks.
