I love this bow.  Myrtle is one of my favorite bow woods and this bow looks as nice as any Blacktail, Robertson or Eaglewing that I have seen made with it.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target

Thanks folks for the encouraging words. I enjoy working with myrtle there is so much variation in the color and grain. I tried to get a picture to show variations. Thanks again Tony
