That is awesome! Great job using a wood that not many people use! I like the handle wrap and the script.   That tiller is really nice! You really do make great bows Jason.  I'm really happy to have one!!  ;D

I bet you could totally eliminate your handshock issues by reducing thickness on the tips. I think it's only over built at the tips. You can see the un-necessary tip thickness in the full draw picture, and see as a result, where your tips aren't working.

Yep Abd, did that intentionally as it was a wood i had never use before and had a reputation for being a poor quality bow wood. In any case i'll defenantly be improving on it my next go round.

Thanks nathaniel and Bowman

Cool idea to use Yaupon... Now you won't be able to look anywhere in a forest without seeing bow wood everywhere
