Beautiful executed bow!
Great profiles, esp. the unbraced.
You had a great mentor.

Excellent first bow. Patm and blackhawk are spot on. I really like the blended colors. It's been awhile since I've done that. Your bow makes me wanna give it another try.

Very nicely done.  You might could get more bending out of the fades, but it's not bad at all.  I really like two particular things, 1] the reflex in the unbraced pic shows that your limbs are not over stressed for the draw weight, and 2] your handlework is very clean.  I would guess you are a leather worker, ...or should be if you're not.  :D

I appreciate all the nice comments.  Im currently working on another osage stave that previously served as a fencepost in Illinois.  Im gonna try to shorten it to 64" TTT, but still shoot for 60# at my 29" draw length.  Thanks again for all your comments.
