Man I don't think I could hunt with a beauty like that. I mean if you keep looking at the bow how are you to see the deer!    :goldtooth:

I'm betting those pictures don't do it justice.

Simply beautiful! I really like that one allot.  Where do you get the mesquite for the riser?

That bow is awesome.  I love the way the woods look together, excellent job!

Thanks everyone I appreciate all the kind words.  The pics really dont do it justice the curly black limba really sets it off.  

@ Jess I get it when I go home to Texas and I'm lucky enough to be able to bring enough big logs back and it sits in my garage for about a year and then I get out the jointer and see what I can use.  

@ Kenny it will be about 2 AM when I roll through there but if your willing I am willing to stop and have some   :coffee:
