Title: My new Morrison ILF Longbow
Post by: Lewis Brookshire III on September 18, 2009, 05:32:00 PM

I have been lusting over this combo for quite some time, too long it seems. I recently aquired the limbs and ordered the new riser from Bob. Here is the end result.

The limbs are "C" Carbon/Foam Longbow limbs with Copperhead skins. The riser is the Mini14" With some really pretty Bubinga, phenolic accent and Cocbolo/Maple overlays w/finger grooves. This bow is gorgeous and like all Bob's bows its top shelf finish work. Its everything I could ask for in a bow. Quiet, fast and forgiving! Im a happy camper!! Thanks again Bob!

Nice looking bow.  I've been eyeing something like that for a while as well.   What's the resultant bow length?

The Mini14" with the "C" limbs makes a 56" Longbow.

Good for you, Lewis. I'm glad you finally got back into a Mini-14 riser and that you now have some of Bob's foam/carbon longbow limbs. As you know, I have a similar opinion of that combination and would not part with mine.

Allan, you were right this is by far the best shooting bow I have had the pleasure of owning. It fits me just perfectly. Bob's work is just stunning and I have always wanted a bow with copperhead skinned limbs and these are superb.

I think I have finally found a bow (other than the Osage bow I made in my Avatar) that will never leave my house. And that is saying alot for me! LOL

Lewis,

I am really happy that you are so pleased with your new bow. I only have one question -- how are you ever going to hunt with the bow if it will never leave your house?    :bigsmyl:    :biglaugh:
