Really nice looking bow Marlen.   Yep, look forward to seeing your next one.  Good save on using the blow snake......that's a new specie for me too.

Beautiful work! Even though I'm not the hugest fan of Snake skin backed bows, this one looks amazing.
Love the tips, and the overall tiller is spot on!

Great job. 😊

Thank you all for the encouraging comments.

DesertDisciple  I do believe the blow snake, bull snake, and Gopher snake are similar, but not for sure on that.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

 Great looking bow Marlin, nice tillering job!  What's the length ntn?  The bow looks like it would be perfect for hunting in tight cover.
When I stop learning please put me in a box!

DesertDisciple   Ya these skins do look pretty cool.

Thanks Forest Farmer this bow is 52 inches nock to nock.  I works pretty good in ground blind I might try hunting a turkey with it.

Redhand, as Northern Ute are we neighbors?  I live in Utah.

Siberian elm grows all over here, and I have made so many bows and attempts with it.  I LOVE what you did on this one.

Just a beautiful bow!
All of the elements of this bow fit together and compliment each other nicely.
