I always liked a Molly and I really like this one.
The more I shoot it the more I like it.

It has some reflex




heat treated belly


Lace wood handle




His dogs toe nails ??? ;D

Nice bow Mad Max. Patrick is a pretty special guy. Really missed him at our Michigan Marshall meet this year. He's always helping someone and he builds a awesome bow.

Nice bow, Mr Pat!
Mark, that shelter in your 1st pic looks cool.

My dad and I built that Gazebo, it has a concrete floor with a 6' hole in the middle for a fire pit.
Lot's of world problems solved under there.
Thanks for the comments guy's, Pat and the bow are Awesome!

Marc,  I'm really glad you like the bow, you know what I went through to get you a bow made.  I am just glad it survived the anual mojam storm!  (W (R (R (R

The handle is actually leopard wood and the overlays are cow horn.  Although my dogs toe nails are probably big enough!  (lol)

Thank you all so much for the compliments, but JonW was a huge help in the deminsion/design and tiller.  Thanks buddy for helping me make my first successfull molly and hackberry bow.  I learned a lot about this design. 

I'm out of town right now but I will try to get some pictures of the beautiful bow Marc made me in return.
