Now that's what I call a full draw. Great lookin handle build up, too!
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Manny, I still remember the first PA magazine I picked up in a grocery store in Texas about 4 years ago.  BOM featured one of your bows, and I still remember thinking that is a sweet bow.  That is when I discovered there were people out there making beautiful, functional bows, and decided I wanted to be one of them...still working on that. 

Great bow, and glad to see you are still making them!
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Good stuff!

Manny and I traded for a guava bow a few years ago....impressive stuff!

Awesome bow Manny!  I was wondering if you were gonna start building bows again, I missed seeing your work.   :)

Hey Manny, nice to see you resurface! I was a little worried about you. Cheers!
