Ron's on his way back home this morning. As we were grilling, shooting bows/arrows and watching my daughters plink away with a 100 year old pump Winchester .22 and their bows, Ron placed a call to Dave regarding the construction of his bow. It's a one of a kind and as I said it's a real nice shooter (even though the shelf is on the backwards side of the bow). The finish, glue lines and leather work are all impeccable. A lot of bowyers are craftsmen, but some cross over to craftsman/artists. I'd definately put this bow in that category.
Rossco, I believe Ron said it's one or the other, but not both on this bow. Be patient, he'll be on here to answer by tomorrow when he catches up.
