Like  Timo, I cringed when I saw the braced picture that looked as though it had a huge hinge: but, the full draw picture showed it to be a skillfully tillered bow.  Great bowyery on a challenging piece of wood.  Beautiful bow.  Bet it packs a walllop!!

Love it!! Fantastic job Will. It's sad that we won't see anymore from in a while. :( Sounds like you need an air conditioned shop! :) I could use one too.

Sweet.

     Ditto!

Thritto!!!

(is that even a word??)

Great bow and great record of building it!  Glad to see I wasn't alone in "seeing a hinge" there too hehehe.  Also very glad it's just as a result of the angle of the shot :)

Very tasty bow!!
