Brian and Rafael,

You better lock that bow up because when I grab hold of it, I wont let go   :readit:  

Very nice piece of wood place perfectly in a very nice Bowyer/finishers hand!!!!

that is the last you will see of that cocobolo,  it will have a flat finish with texture. The gloss really pops out the grain.

Maybe I`ll just keep it.
HA>>> i'm so glad i know where the finisher lives just in case   :smileystooges:

Another beautiful bow from McDonald with the added touch from Brian. You're a lucky man Rafael. The only complaint I have about those McDonald bows is there's not enough handshock. You need something to know you're still alive!
