Of all the bows of yours that I have seen, this is by far my favorite.  Simple, natural, and exquisitely tillered!  Well done! Josh

That's an awesome bow Ryan!  I really like how it has that primitive look to it.  A lot of primitive bows have a very refined look, almost like a fiberglass bow.  But your bow shows a perfect balance of human ingenuity without "erasing" the natural beauty of the wood, leaving just enough to show that it was once a living tree.   A perfect harmony of Mother NAture and human skill.  AWESOME!!

That bow just looks dirty, like something that was pulled out of some ancient cave :)  I love it!

That is pretty incredible for natural color, and great tiller as always

Sweet!  I like that one bro!!  The string is even colored to match it just right.  Looks like something to shoot hogs with down in Florida.

thanks very much guys.  im pleased with it. Its amazing how the simplest of bows that have a rugged appearance can often be some of the coolest.  not sure if its the standard shape or the colors or what, but this bow just "works" for me
