Congrats Rudy!

PD, you've set the bar pretty high with that one, looks sweet.

Waiting on mine to rehydrate, heat treated the belly yesterday, can't wait to get back to it so I can finish it up.....Dan

Very nice bow Ruddy and Pearl. You all sure got this swap rolling.
Here's a sneak peak at my takedown riser and  limb. The riser is walnut and curly maple with black accent strips. Just curious what type of wood you think the limb is? I gained it in a trade. I thought it was red elm, but wondered what you all think.
   
   
   
 

Now that's a hook!!! Looks like elm to me.

Very nice bow Ruddy, good job Pearl.

Looks like you two hit it off perfectly Ruddy. Im glad you enjoy the bow...................................if it breaks dont come lookin' for me!

Thanks for the kinds words all.

Sprayed my trade bow this afternoon.

I may have to keep it, its a pound light.....  

Pearl I like how ol' Ruddy is standing their trying to look all cool when you know he wants to do a back flip. LOL

Way to hold your composure Ruddy    :D

Ruddy you are one lucky duck. Man the bar gets set high quick this year.

Very nice bow PD, it turned out great.

Pearl Drums- Way to put the pressure on! Seriously if all the bows turn out like that one no one should have any complaints. NICE!  

A couple teasers for the picture hungry folks....    

I love the phenolic I-beam Kenny, sweet!

kris, i got one cedar arrow right now. when i opened the tube and pulled out that bow i turned on the flood lights in the back yard and shot that one arrow for an hour. lots of walkin between the bow and the target lol. now on to more pressing matters. i also promised some pics of my trade in progress. i hope my recipient likes hickory.the back a couple of pics of both fades full length belly shot

I guess it's ok, Kenny.         Looking good Ruddy.

Kenny thats going to make someone very happy!!    

I'm glad I put "no preference" so there is still hope I could get that bow Kenny :-) Although...I've seen several others I'd be happy with too so it's all good.
Ruddy I don't think anyone hates hickory! What's not to love about a super durable bow? Looks like it's coming along pretty well too.

Thats one clean, straight stave Ruddy. Should make one sweet bow.

Maybe one more....

Wow! Thats an incredible wood combo/look, but you cut the shelf in the wrong side for me!

In all seriousness that may be the prettiest bow I have seen.
