Very nice!  Love the finish work!

Thanks Chris & Chris (good & bad)
Thank you johnfolchetti
Thanks Matt
Thanks Michael, glad you got to see it up close
Thanks adams89 & xpertbushman, appreciate the feedback fellas
Thanks Rich, you've been on my hit list for a trade for awhile, got a few more to build first so hows about sometime around summer? I know I'd love to have one of yours for my collection.
Thanks Paul & Pappy
Thank you Simon, Stephen and Falcon, I appreciate the compliments men
Thanks bowmo, yeah I am always looking at volume 1 of native american bows, arrows and quivers by Steve Allely and Jim Hamm for inspiration. Probably open that book up 3 or more times a week while sitting out on the porch relaxing in the evening.

Dang Greg that's a looker, you always have great attention to detail along with great bends

I've really been studying your pictures this evening Greg......I really like that bow.  Very fine work and tastefully done indeed.  Hope you'll post another one soon.
