I think it's absolutely awesome,  ;D.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

- Tao Te Ching, 77, A new translation by Victor H. Mair

If you think that this is cool, look up the backyardbowyer on YouTube. He is the master of PVC pipe bows... his are by far the coolest I've seen.

Yeah, I have made a few of these, they can be pretty fun for sure. Can be a bit of a pain to tiller if you have any hinges after initial shaping.
Giving it your best effort is what anyone should expect.
