Not sure about this one.

[BrushWolf]

Have you ever started a bow then not been sure if you like it or not. I started working on something I've been thinking about for some time now. It has turned out very well to what I had in my minds eye. But since it has begun to take shape I'm having doubt if I am liking it. Has anyone had it happen?

[breazyears]

Show a pic... Ill make up your mind for ya. Lol.

[kennym]

A couple, try not to be against it til you shoot it.  

[Dan Landis]

I agree with Kenny, if it shoots good you can overlook a lot. LOL

[Pat B]

Glass or wood? Good advice above about not judging until you shoot it. Our imaginations can be pretty obscure sometimes but you never know til you try.

[monterey]

That describes all of my personal bows.  Friends and relatives snap up the nice ones.

But, like Kenny said, shooting can make it more satisfactory.  

[BrushWolf]

It's a glass bow haven't made limbs yet just working on the riser. It is going to be a static tip. I wanted a dark wood bow. The wood block that I used is exactly what I wanted it to br. I put waterbuffalo horn on it. The horn is what I'm not sure of. I will see about posting a pic or two.

[kennym]

I'm bettin on ya Mike!! It will be good.....

Oh, and I bet some finish will make the horn just right!!

Thank Kenny. I put a little sealer on the riser. The black and white ebony is what I think the veneers will be. It needs a lot more sanding maybe it will grow on me.

You know, you're right. There is just something about that riser....
Maybe you should send it to me here in Canada so you'll never have to see it again.    
I think it rocks! I'm still working to build risers that nice.

Thanks wood carver. The riser has turned out well. I just not sure it's what I had in mind. Ithink the horn on the shelf might be to much.Should have thinned the horn overlays more. I will just have to finish It and see what we get.

[EwokArcher]

I love the horn and over all color combos

[trasher]

Are you kidding? This is a beautiful riser!
I think this one looks great but it will also looks great without the horn or thinner ones.
It's a personal thing, if you like bells and whistles or not!
But If you are thinking about thats too much, I would go on the safer side.
It would be a pity if the bow is finished and you're constantly asking, do I like it ore not!

my 2 cents

[kennym]

I like it! If the horn was sanded smoother on its edges was the only thing I'd do. I saw you said it needed more sanding so you are way ahead of me.

[Sam McMichael]

I think it looks very good! I would be proud to be seen in public with it.

[WVbowhunter]

I mean if you don't like it I wouldn't mind if it made its way to West Virginia. That thing looks amazing man.

[breazyears]

Guess i could take it off your hands! You dont want to have to look at that thing all the time knowing you could have done better. Ill send my address. Lol.

[BrushWolf]

Thanks everyone. I will finish it and not judge it till I shoot it. You all have  built my confidence that it will be all right.I told myself it's the last bow I build and keep. I just want it to be right.

[Mad Max]

It's dark wood and horn , can't really see Mike.
They always look good
