Title: Finished Twin Forward Riser Hill Styles
Post by: Hatrick on February 16, 2014, 07:48:00 PM

Just finished these two up. One righty and one lefty. Both are 64" and 50# @ 28". They're backset with the forward riser. No, they're not strung backwards   :D  . Osage riser with some phenolic. The limbs are a combination of sassafras and walnut. Belly sassafras is stained walnut.

Thanks for the comments, fellas. Tony, I plan on taking these to the banquet. I want to show them at the banquet and then arrange to raffle one off (choice to winner left/right) at Baltimore in May. Proceeds to TBM. I'm thinking of pulling the winning ticket at the dinner on Saturday night. At least that's my plan for now.

On how they shoot I can only speak for the right handed bow. I can't shoot a lick left handed. I know it's just my opinion but it seems to have excellent cast and shoots both GT 3555's and 1916's really well.

They're beautiful, but I just can't get use to that backwards effect. :)
