I like the contrast of the white and black and also the tiller shape for that profile. I wish my cell phone pics turned out half that good. Thanks for sharing!

[Dvshunter]

Thanks for all the kind words.  I finally got the rest of the pics finished.

[Eastman]

That bow looks great. I've got some white stinkwood (celtis africana, related to Hackberry) that i'm gonna try out soon 

[Bowman]

I like this bow. Classy and fantastic workmanship. I like the leather grip. Black leather with simple stringwrap. Very nice. :-)

Sweet lines on that one, for sure. Very nice job!!

Another nice looking bow Dave.
Hackberry is about the only tree here on my place that grows straight and does'nt have thorns...

Thanks Kip.  I say the same to you. 

Thanks Steve.

Thanks Cody, but the full draw credit goes to my nine year old. . I just cropped out the rooftops.

Paul, I hear ya. I've got loads of the stuff on my farm. Some probably eighteen inches around and not a limb for at least thirty feet! I'm going after one hrs soon. It's to easy to work not to have a bunch of it. Plus it splits well and all mine dried into reflex with the bark left on.

Thank you lesken.

Thanks Bowman. The grip is leather that is sanded down on the edges and wrapped around the grip. No string wrap on this one.  There is a good how to here that I used. They look better than my stitching.


Eastman, Hubby, and sa, thanks. Go get after them bows and don't forget the pics when they are done.
