Wow, that is fantastic. That thing has curves on contours on curves. What are the specs on it?

That really is an exceptional looking bow :notworthy:
I think it deserves a prettier arrow rest.

I don't blame you!
Maybe some tiny inlay, something that would not detract from the visual appeal you got going on there.

Seal skin makes a good rest and strike plate. It's super slick and looks great.

The flash from the Camera made the leather look brighter in the pictures up top

You guys are going to think I'm fruity, but I was thinking about that strike plate last night. Just because that bow is really fantastic looking. The layers made me think of conifer rings and I thought a elongated, narrow drip profile in yellow leather or ??, that looked like it was running down into a puddle on the shelf would be cool. Just an idea. I'm going to go put my Nomex suit on now :cheesy:
