Don't be too hard on our ol buddy Mudd there David. Some of the old masters built some mighty fine yew bows with colored glass - it's faster than clear you know, and I think it looks cool!     :thumbsup:    

   
   
   
   

Like my Mate Ben, i've got a secret surprise coming too but I ain't tellin nothin!     :thumbsup:

Spanky, how many of those Schulz jobs would you own right now if they were still being made?  I have two and that Pete George yew/brown glass, I am curious to compare it to my son's Timberline yew/clear glass.  I have a hard time convincing people how hard those old bows shoot.

I have to concede that Spanky's bow looks pretty sharp. I meant no disrespect toward Roy or anyones personal choice. I myself would not cover Yew as I like to see the color change as it ages but, again, Spanky's bow looks very nice!   :thumbsup:

TW don't worry about anything you said to me.

It's all good!!

I can take a good ribbing any time and even someone questioning my judgment.

Shoot there are lots of times I question it myself...lol

Thanks Mudd, I appreciate that!

Spanky, who built that bow? I did a search for American Longbow but, came up with nothing that resembled the one you have above.
