Unique for sure! Took a long time and a skilled hand to do all that carving. The antlers throw off the lines of a "conventional" bow, but if they are secured well, Im sure it shoots ok.
All that work, I wonder if it was meant as an ornament/wallhanger though...

Would hate to try to navigate through thick brush with it.  Definitely unique.

I think it is neat looking but not to practical! Would look alot nice if it didn't have white glass on it!

I'm all about shock value.  I'd show up to a shoot with it while wearing a spandex body suit.  

But other than that, its a bit tacky.

Art is in the eye of the beholder, I had this on my watch list on cheese bay to show a friend and I look at it like a unique labor of love, I could own it but more likely won't.

The person who made it obviously has a few skills. Sometimes talented people don't know when to stop though.    :readit:  

If it is a shooter, ugly can be forgiven.   :saywhat:

LOL  Mike
Takes thick skin to play on the LW

Some people like Ford's and some Chevy's,
or to keep it archery related, some like Black Widows some don't.

Question is, do you like it? and how does it shoot?

The riser is ultra-nice other than the horns. They distract and serve no purpose IMO. Maybe cut them off and do some shrimsaw on the nubs.

That's a case of a person without a creative mind,trying to be creative.

It does look functional though.If you ran out of arrows,you could still defend yourself.
