Nothing like setting the bar high!  Nice work, very nice work indeed. 

Go looking for one of those cheesy plastic bracelets that looks like barbed wire, untwist it and then twist the plastic barbs into your bowstring for the perfect finishing touch!!!

I can honestly say this is one of the nicest bows I've seen. Great work, to think inside of that old rotting wood post was that bow waiting to come out. Great work.
