3 bows for 3 brothers
« on: December 02, 2013, 05:53:00 PM »
Had a customer from 2007 get ahold of me after all these years looking to get 3 bows for his now grown sons so they would stop stealing his. This is the first of the 3 with the other two close to finish as well. Haven't built a bow in a year or two but it's like riding bike apparently. This one is 55 pounds at 28 inches, 62 inches ntn and backed with deer hide. A slightly overbuilt version of what I make for myself. More to come.

Terrific looking bow.  Nice work    :thumbsup:
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.
