Beautiful bend indeed.  I hope I get to see that in person at COBG.
"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

You did a nice job of working around those pin knots. That can be tricky work especially when they are as numerous as with your bow.

 Steve, I'll let you do the final count. There are multiple pins in each cluster and about 14 small clusters.
 Thank you  Greg
 Thank you  Matt
 Thank you  Weylin
 Thank you  Jon
 Thank you  Pat   as Steve said She is 58# @ 26  Guess why he knows this ;D
 Thank you  Kip
 Thank you  John, and yes it's a bit cold out but after a couple weeks of mornings that were in the minus range. The recent warm-up to the twenties feels real nice. :o
 Thank you  Hammer, get out this way and I would be happy to take you out for some wood.
 Thank you Bub
 Thank you Clint
 Thank you Carson,  Sorry my friend, this one ships out in the morning for her new home in Ohio, so she won't be at the COBG
 Thank you Gordon

That truly is a thing of beauty ;)
Is this bow making a sickness? or the cure...

Boy what a dandy unique bow.All those pin knots had to be time consuming.Full draw lines are the best they can be.

 Thanks again everyone,
Even though it was challenging this was a very fun build as it was made specifically for a guy with a great heart! I am continually impressed with the generosity of so many great people on this site. From rendezvous gatherings to trades done on the forum people are always stepping up to the plate to help any who need. One of those that top the list is Steve AKA (Seabass)  I have seen him go out of his way to find something for total strangers and give expecting nothing in return. I have heard of many speaking the same about him as well.

  As some of you may have already figured out from the hints this one is for SEABASS. You certainly deserve it my friend

thank you for all the nice words guys.there are plenty of giving people on this site.i usually give things to people that i have seen being nice to others.one example is during the bow trade some people didn't recieve a bow.two people that i know of,stepped up to the plate and made bows for those that didn't recieve one.that was very generous of them,so i made them something for being so kind to others.i think that there is many generous people on here.this is what draws me here,the people.thank you all,you are a great bunch of folks.
