Yeah it is a beauty. Good to have some stiff competition. I hope we can give him a little stiff competition to.

I hope to finish another one to enter, I don’t mind losing to a bow like that. Be even happier to lose to one better than that

Don’t give up before we start.

 ;D  I'm still finishing my latest frankenbow, so it might be a February entry.  Or March, at the speed I get these things done.

I’ve been working on one, but I’m tillering it really slow. I have two inches to get it perfect. It’s been holding its profile amazingly well so far. It’s a wiggly stave I got from Arvin. I’ll see if I can get it finished, but I’m not going to rush it.

Its open for anything primitive, including laminated as long as its natural materials. As soon as we start getting enough to justify it, I will split the categories like they used to be.
