Cool looking knotty bow Pat! I like that string keeper too :).

That's a real nice and unique bow there Pat. Pretty cool how that tree went from MT to NC and then became a nice bow!

Pat, that is truly a beautiful bow, but I'm worried about your deer target, I think it has a skin condition.

Thanks everyone. This was a fun and interesting project. Yew is a great wood to work with. I hope I'm not too rough with this bow as I know how soft yew is.
   Sorry about no full draw pic yet. Hopefully I can get to it today. Thanks for being patient! ;)   Pat

wow that is a super cool stave / bow.
Love the upper knot that you worked around. Gotta see that one in person.

Looks like your deer has seen better days tho.
