bernie, she's a beauty.  i love the color combos:  the choice of woods looks very stylish, the nocks are one up from there and the icing on the cake is the color of the handle wrap.  stunning. 

you know, there's this webpage where a guy is collecting every picture of a drawn bow he can get.   i suggest you send him a picture or two, he might post them for you  ;D

Sweet bow bernie, I wish I would've had someone to slap me every time I strayed on my first bow ;D. No bald spot yet though ;D
also my 2nd, yea probably my 3rd as well, now that I think about  I could still use a good slap on da head, wonder if the wife would help ;D
Awesome job and hope to see many more.

Thanks to all of you, each and every one - so very much. Great way to start my day. (I think "that guy" already has at least a pic or two of me on there, DustyBear - even with this bow - LOL.) Nice to meet another "ol' Hoss", ridge -  :D

  Lots of years ago i used those tracers on my deer arrows. My wife has all kinds of goodies in her craft shop and i found some batten i think she calls it and it works great. I decided to go back to them this year.    Ridge

Thanks, Ryan - a welcome comment indeed, considering how much I like your bows and respect your bowyering talent. Ridge, another old former Marine (Dano) taught me that trick on the first cane arrow he sent me - 3 or 4 years ago now. I really like the way they show up and are so light.

That is a beauty. I really think everyone should have to break one or two in the final stages before they make something this beautiful. That cord really sets it off. Did you set it in glue? Great job.
