That΄s a really wonderful bow. I love the shape and the contrast of the sap- and heartwood. Was this bow inspired by the continental longbows such as the Hohenaschaubogen?

I didn't have a specific design in mind, basically I could only do what the stick told me to do. And that was very limited, it was only a thin stem and a small branch.
The bow of Hohenaschau is known to me and I also plan to make a replica, a suitable stave is already stored, but needs a few months to dry.

Thank you all for your nice words!
