Dean, good looking bow. With the snake skin backing it could pass for real!

Nice snake bow!  I love that snakey osage wood.  It's fun to work with, isnt it?  :) -josh

This is a real attention getter. Very skillfully made, too.

Thanks again everybody for the nice compliments. It is quite an attention getter around a crowd. I started this bow at Mojam this summer. I had a fellow look at it the other day and he said it looks like a lightning bolt coming out of the clouds. So that will be it's name. Lightning bolt.

I'll bet that at 45# it'll bring down a deer with a well placed arrow right smartly !!! Perfect string alignment on that snaky stave, and great tiller and finish work. I'd be Very Proud to say I made it - it's a Beauty !!

Gorgeous.  I love that trim handle profile.  Slender like that fits the hand so well. 
Hope to see a deer or two taken with that viper.
