Keenan I have been meaning to ask someone this so I guess it will be you. I have 3 or 4 pairs of sturgeon skins for backing here how do you get the white spots to stand out the ones I have show but not like the ones on your bow or the other ones that I have seen hear do you sand them lightly to bring them out or what? Thanks Tom

 Dave the F/D is coming up, Sorry My wife is going to do it because it's her bow ;D She's been working some long days this week and will get it up as soon as possible.
Mark thank you, Get over this way and see it up close  ;)
 Thanks Apex
 Napper; Some skins have fewer bone flake then others but it dose help to darken the bow with Black leather dye befor putting on the skin. Because the skin can be somewhat trasnparent it will sometimes lshow through and wask the colors if you don't.
 Don't san them or they may come off.  Keenan

Nice bow and I like that your wife has a sense of humor. Well done both of you.

Newly registered on this site and checking out some bows when I came on this thread. That bow is a show stopper and the full draw pics are amazing. You are a fine craftman and one lucky dog too.

 Thanks Ryano.

 Tiller;  I'm trying, heck last year I called in a 5x5 right in front at twenty yrds but she also had a 4x4 bull drooling on her just a couple yards away and she couldn't move. I got the 4x4 repositioned and she got busted by the 5x5 as she turned to shoot. She's more then ready to go kill something. ;D

  Cowboy thank you, and that is so right.

 Thanks Shawn Glad you like it, Welcome to the site.

 Yooper;   ;D ;D ;D I told her she might get more votes then my ugly mug :D

 Gordon: She really enjoyed that compliment. We've been married six years now and I'm still captivated, twitterpiated, moon struck, head over heals  or whatever  you call it.   Heck I could hardley take the pics ;D  Keenan
