Well, right now it's my ugly-as-sin Jeffery Timberline.

But in a few weeks I should have my new Turkey Creek LB. Bubinga riser with ebony saddle grip. Curly aniegre veneers and oryx horn overlays.   :goldtooth:

Here's my two beauties...

 

 

A Horne combo & a Selway Li'l shooter. Got plenty of others, all real nice shooters, but none so purdy as these two! As a coinkydink, the Horne is by far & away the nicest/fastest/sweetest/hitting-what-I-look-at-est shooting bow I've ever owned too!

Winner in my opinion!  :thumbsup:  

I saw a pic of this bow a year or so ago.  Told Eric I wanted one like it.  Blah Blah Blah....he did'nt have any snakey osage......Blah Blah Blah....could'nt easily find copperhead skins long enough for a bow fitting my 29" draw.  I ended up getting a much less snakey osage with western diamondbacks.  It is a beautiful bow and shoots great, but can't hold a candle to Ghost Dogs' bow IMO.  No offense Eric.  I thought this was the best looking bow I had ever seen when I first saw it, I still feel that way.

All great lookin bows!

Being a seflbow guy, I like Ghostdog's Krewson snakey sage/copperhead the best.

You know, the old-time bowyers would have considered all these works of art. I guess I do too.

OK, ALL OF YOU JUST STOP IT RIGHT NOW. I can't take much more of this.

Bjorn, love the arrowhead on the tip. Very cool.
