Nice looking set Rich, and a deadly looking arrow too.

Thank you fellas.
This bow was just a curiosity to me because I wondered what one would be like. I do believe I'm going try and find some more to copy though because they say a lot about the people who made them. Ya can tell the family was a real big part of their lives.

For what it's worth it aint over yet was 9 degrees this AM and another couple inches of snow the last couple days....it's gettin old fellas.

Nicely done Rich. I'm with you on those kids bows being hard to tiller and when you throw in all those scoops it makes working the belly a pain, takes patience which is something I can run a little short on at times. Looking forward to seeing the great lakes collection, I'm partial to them as well.

Thanks Greg,  When I get a few more done I'll throw some pics up. The reason for making them is when I croak the wife can give them to the NA cultural center or the university....leave a little behind as it were.

Nice little bow, tillering those low weighters can be challenging. What kind of elm? Mind showing a close up of the decrowned back? Also that arrow looks great, what is the finish you have on it?

The bow is american (grey) elm, The back is painted green like the original so I'll see if the grain shows, if not I can sand it off a little so it does show.
