I'd say that bow turned out real well and that string is a nice touch of detail.
There's a lot of good wood to make a bow with but you really can't beat a good piece of ash...

Great looking bow, string, tips and skins. I have been too chicken to go that skinny on my tips so far.

That bow turned out real nice,especially since you first considered it sub-par wood. Just curious,how does it cast an arrow.It does look fast. Good job. God Bless

That is a killer bow. Great design and way to get after it with the tempering!
Like others have said, those skinny tips and the perfectly matched string are tops!
