How do you pick the BOM?

Justin Snyder:
Frank, I like where your ideas have gone.  What we would like to see.  Good quality pictures, in focus.  A side picture of unbraced, braced and full draw without canting the bow so we can see what the tiller really looks like.  Also if you put a lot of work into the handle or tips or paint/decorations, a good quality picture of them so we can tell the quality of the work.  You worked hard on your new bow, so show it in its best light.  Justin

Dana, I feel compelled to come to Frank's defense as I think you may have misunderstood his comment. Mechslashers recurve is indeed a fine bow. In fact it would have captured my vote had it not been for M-P's impressive interpretation of a native American style. What I believe Frank was trying to say is that it is difficult to fully appreciate the excellent work that went into Mechslasher's recurves because the photo was so poor. The picture did not diminish Mechslasher's bow for me because I have a pretty good idea of what it takes to pull off such a design and there was enough evidence in the picture to satisfy me that he did a good job of it. But the picture did leave me wanting - such fine craftsmanship deserves a better showing.
