Wow, you got to respect a lady who is so focused.  I know my first bow I sat down and worked for 3 days straight to finish it.  I swore I would never do it again straight like that.  I saw full grown men who quit half way thru.  So  for the lady to be focused like that, demands respect.

And the bow turned out beautiful.

Thats a really nice bow Gordon. The tiller looks great. Especially for having asymmetrical limbs. Well done :)

  Wow, that is a sweet looking bow. Plumb is one of my favorites. I imagine a bow like that will get her hooked. Steve

Steve, I agree that plum is a fine bow wood. I think she is already hooked. Thank you for the compliment.

Hey Frank, it's always good to hear from you. Thank you for the compliment.

Thank you Scowler.

Michael, the chair was made by a good friend as a house warming gift for my new tipi - I really like it!

Thank you Greg. Haven't done much fishing, but Jayne and I will be going to the N. Umqpua the first week of August. I can't wait to put a skater in front of some of those fish. You going to WJAM? It's close to my backyard this this year.

Naah, this bow can't be on BOM before we have seen a picture of Mel herself pulling it!  ;D ;D ;D
Just kidding...
I'm sure the bow will be a front runner on BOM...!
By the way... BOM... ummm...






PS: Hello Josh... I checked 'new replies' before I checked 'new posts'... !


PPS: I actually can't find this bow in the  slefbow list.
