Finished my latest bow finally
« on: March 24, 2014, 08:57:00 PM »
I just got done working on my latest bow. I have been working on it for the past few months and I sure am glad to have it finished. Now I am ready to start my next one. This bow has a Bastogne Walnut riser, Myrtle veneers, and Camphor Burl for an overlay on the back. The Bastogne Walnut and Myrtle veneers came from Idahocurt and he definitely supplied me with some beautiful wood. She came in at 40#'s at 28". Sorry I don't have a full draw pic but sometime in the next day or two when I get back over to the shop I will get my bow model to pose with a full draw pic. Thank goodness Chackworth works cheap, it will only cost me a beer to get him to model the bow.  :D

Here are the pics hope you guys like it.

I don't know about my choice either, but my cousin saw something good in him to marry him.  So I guess he is ok.  :)  (I think his modeling fee just went higher.)

Ha!  I wasn't sure about his choice either but you can't pass up a free beer!  I already told him my prices went up and it'll cost him at least two beers       :bigsmyl:
