There can never be to many pics of a beautiful bow. I think you still owe us a couple.
Really nice looking bow.

Wow, thanks all for the kind words
Bubby.  I agree I would love to find one with good sapwood that would look awsome with both  colors!

I think some of the issue is how it is being held and drawn. It is not as bad as you think.
