Osage and cocobolo has to be one of the best looking combos, they always look great together.  Love the braced and unbraced profiles; perfect.  Congratulations!

Nice bow!! Wise choice getting a take down. No doubt you will be taking it on your motorcycle. Make sure you show us how you do that.

Really nice bow...Ron King is a true craftsman.

...and I'm no photographer or camera expert, but those look like great pics to me.  What camera are you using?
