Charlie makes a great bow. Congrats. I have one he made me with some Texas Ebony I sent him. Love it.

Beautiful work Charlie!  You outdid yourself yet again!  

Bro, I'm proud of your homegrown bow.  Can't wait to see it in person.


Kinda reverse order, but I thought I would throw in some pics from April 2009 as the riser block and limb laminations were rough sawn from the timber.


Limb lams:

   


Here is the beginning of the riser block:
       


     


     


       

 
     


I couldn't resist adding this one from our initial work on the riser block.  How to celebrate a plan coming together, Charlie Lamb style:

Good times for sure!! Amazing how much wood we had to cut away to find usable stuff for the riser. It was as pretty a piece of osage as I've seen lately... lots of red in the grain.

And thanks for the pics of the stogey!! Haven't smoked a cigar or a cigarette since last September... seeing that still makes me twitch a little.

Great stuff guys!  Osaage and Eastern Cedar (actually a juniper, not cedar) is one of the beat looking wood combos there is and this is a special example.  :clapper:

That bow is absolutely Awesome! I think I like that one and the color scheme better than any bow I've looked at recently, and I do lots and lots of scouring around on the internet just looking at bows and drooling.   :p  

I gotta tell ya Charlie and Chris.... my Tshirt is wet from drooling over that magnificent piece of Bowyer perfection!!   :notworthy:  

Maybe one of these days I'll be good enough to make myself one of those.....NOT!
