I just watched all the videos on his site and they look to be good shooting bows. Can't comment on the quality or anything but, Washington has some good bowyers. I do like the looks of the riser on that cedar bow he made.

I'm surprised a bowyer would string a bow that way.

Good looking bow but, I hope you use a stringer when stringing it up! :D I too am surprised that he recommended doing it that way.
Look forward to your shooting review. I really like the looks of that quilted maple.

Doing it that way twists the limbs, which isn't good. It is just as fast or faster to push/pull with the lower limb against your instep, and doesn't twist the limbs if you do it correctly. Or use a stringer. I stopped using a stringer when the leather cup blew apart on me one time and basically dry fired the bow.

I like the way he has added finger grooves since I bought mine.
