I'll update some of these comments in a couple of days ! -OldBow
"By golly she's a good 'un. I gotta know how you get what appears to be no more than 2", if that, of boo on boo to do a 75 degree bend and store 60# of draw weight. Don't generally see that without some horn or sinew or both. Good on ya. Real fine work and thanks for posting." - DCM
"Doesn't get any better that that! Amazing workmanship" -jackcrafty
"I love it! just like your last bow, it made me jump back, scream out, break my neck twice, and just getting back on my chair to say 'wow'!" -nickf
" That bow is simply amassing to say the least.Your finish work is excellent and the relaxed,braced and especially full draw just made my wife drool. First thing she said was "I want one like that".. Thanks a lot I'll forgive you if you send me the bow and I can tell her I made it Again awesome job on one heck of a fine bow"- Keenan
