Well she's about ready for some finish. Will try to get that done soon. It's turned out better then I'd hoped. Have to get a string made for it too. 18# @ 24" 48"

It looks really nice. A work of art. I can't wait to see it with a finish. Put his name and yours on it, first. This bow should be a heritage and I cannot imagine it being sold!

What a treasure for a grandson to have, a bow made by grand-pa!

Very slick, Ben. I don't think I've seen that aggressive an r/d in that light and small a longbow. Bet it's a little screamer!

BenBow .. we have a saying here in England .."that's a little belter" ... and that bow sure is a little belter.
