Thanks guys. You could have knocked me over with a feather when he gave it to me. I think Mike may have a new career on the horizon.

That's special bud. A true friend is one that can't be bought, borrowed or taken, they are earned. Sure looks like that's what you have Fred, y'all both are blessed. That bow is pretty special too.....
Congrats,

Thanks to all for the kind words and compliments!
I'm far from a professional bowyer, and have infinite respect and admiration for those who are. It's very fun and educational to make bows and the rewards FAR outwiegh the effort and time.
This particular bow is special for many reasons and Fred is very deserving of it (and our friendship)
Of course, the bow will not really be his until he bloodies it up!!

Great Story! and.... A Nice looking bow Mike.
Once you get the bow building bug it's a lot of fun developing new designs and prototyping stuff.
But....Do yourself a favor and don't go professional. It's a sure way to ruin a perfectly good hobby trying to make a living doing this stuff. Kirk
