That is a fine looking bow with a beautiful tiller.  I really like the way you do your handle area.  Thanks again for sharing on this site.
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...

Thanks fellas.....This paticular piece of wood came from northern Arkansas from JonW.An expert bow maker himself.I'm in the process of getting some what the Amish call gray elm growing locally around here.The other lighter weight red elm I' tried locally here I don't care for too much.

Real nice bow!  It appears to be a natural camo pattern!

Thanks Hawk....This elm does'nt take stain very well and I wanted to keep my snake skins back.The pretty ones are getting a little too expensive nowadays.

That thing is sweet. Cow horn complements the bow perfectly

Thanks fellas.....I'm still shed hunting and shooting this bow in.No more sheds but plenty of arrows shot.It's shooting pretty good with all my shoot shafts I made lately.
It's getting ridiculously hard to find good multi colored cow horn tips any more.Otherwise their so expensive I won't buy them.I do like them a lot,and it seems others do too.Got plenty of plain old black ones and antler.Although browned antler was a choice I passed up which would of looked good too.I should just go without any overlays but have a fondness for them yet.
