Very nice, both of them. I'd be proud to carry either one anywhere.    :thumbsup:

Wait a minute........are there 3 different bows?

The first 2 pics almost looked like the same bow, but now they look like different bows or are my eyes getting tired?
Anyway, they all look real nice.

Yes the burrs are real, I named the bows "Drop Tine", and use deer antler on every bow as accents. Here are some other pics.

Very nice indeed.  What are the risers backed with?  Looks to thick to be glass.
