Man, that is one STRAIGHT piece of yew. Did you correct it? Good thing you did not let it rot. IT came out great. Super classy bow.

Wow! This has been a good year!  I stopped by to visit my old buddy Soy last night and damned if he didn't just knock my socks off by giving me this old piece of yew back!  I tell you folks, the pictures don't do this bow justice.  She's a rare beauty and I can find no flaw on it.  She's silky smooth on the draw and release and sinks those arrows deep!  This is the one and only yew bow I have and what a bow it is!  I didn't get any pictures, but i do intend to try and have many for the hunting pictures section.  Soy...I can't thank you enough Brother!  Josh

 the part that has too little is increased."

I had to take a break this afternoon and loose a few arrows.  It is a pure pleasure to shoot. Thanks again Thad!  Josh

Nice work Thad. That turned out real nice. That is a good deal there Gun Doc!
"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
