Bada$$ly Bent bow.

 Greg (Badly Bent) and I did a trade and his got here first.
I have been coveting one of his bows for a while now and this one didn't disappoint. Its going to be my turkey bow.  Shoots great.  It just goes to show I still have a lot to learn ;)

Sorry, I just couldn't stop taking pics of this bow, very photogenic  ::)

Congratulations on a fine bow and your photos are really beautiful.  I am jealous Matt!

 Greg, there is no way he can be disappointed with that!!  Really great work.   After talking with you about the pressure you feel when you are making a bow for another bowyer, I was hoping to see a post today on this subject.  We are always our own harshest critic.  You really outdid yourself brother.  The braced, unbraced, and full draw all show first rate workmanship.

Greg is a first rate guy and a fantastic bowyer. I can't wait to get his bow done for him.  I've got a couple in the works and he will be getting it relatively soon.  I just love trades.  They are a lot of pressure though.  I think bowyers are the most appreciative at the same time, because they know all the work that goes into making one of these.

Yea, Greg took it out of the museum display case long enough to let  me hold it! ;D  He is a great bowyer and a gem of a human being.  ;)
