Nice work/tiller/and bow....Character sticks will always have stiff looking spots in them.Does'nt mean they won't last and shoot well though.

Boy howdy, but you tore that one up like a savage! Good profile, good tillering, and good looking finish work.  Ya done gone and done good!

Looks all around good to me:) I don’t hand out compliments lightly.
Tiller is spot on colors look great.
I’ve never backed vm before. Even after violating its rings harshly. It’s just a wood that doesn’t want to come apart.
I like what you did.

pnwarcher,
                  Credit is due here...I like your three phase picture and see everything moving, fades and even the tips gently move at full draw...Class A balance in the pictures in hand...Great craftsmanship also...Nice stick Sir....

That's awesome! I love seeing a good vine maple bow. I love all the unique touches to it. How far up into washington are you? You should come down and meet up with some of us Oregon guys sometime. You look like you'd fit right in.  ;D
