After shooting this in for a month or so I decided to go ahead and finish it up.  64" ntn, 49# @27.  My first erc and first try with sinew.  Stained the back with a wine colored stain and the sinew gave it a interesting texture.  Belly is not stained has a sliver of heartwood left after tillering.  A few pics...

Thanks guys - appreciate the comments.  It was a fun one to make.

Cory - it shoots nice.  Been shooting it for awhile now - about 18 yards in I can group them pretty well with her. (for me anyway  :D )

Here is a full draw pic - talked my wife into going outside since it quit snowing.

I like that bow.  Beautiful.

Thats SWEET!!!!! I like the belly a lot.  In the picture that sinew makes the back like cedar bark.. Well done.

That's a pretty cool looking bow! Nice work!

That is a very nice bow!!!

Thanks fellas!  This must of got bumped up when someone asked about the belly for erc.  Still my favorite one to shoot.  Although I finished a mulberry that I like a lot too!

very pretty bow. sinew backed erc has been tempting me in day dreams recently.

Very nice looking bow. For your next one try a 57" so you get the full potential of the sinew.

Thanks Pat - I have some drying now.  I will take your suggestion and give it a try.
