English Walnut Sasquatch
« on: August 30, 2023, 01:37:31 PM »
 This Sasquatch hybrid long bow is on its way to WV right now. The wood grain in this English Walnut was so beautiful, It just needed to be shared.  The accent color and I-beam is bloodwood.
Specs are 60" length , 40@28"   , and this has two sets of limbs too.



I have WAY too many photos of this bow. :biglaugh:  I can add an album if you would like to see more, but here are some highlights in the link below.

Beautiful wood grain.
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Looks great, would love the opportunity to shoot your bows one of these days. I’ve only read good things about your bows.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I sincerely wish I had a lot more of that English walnut. I harvested this myself from a tree at our ranch about 3 years ago. The tree had bugs in it that killed the trees. I lost several of them that year…. Unfortunately the majority of the wood was used for firewood rather than prime riser stock. Too many bug holes and splits in the wood….. I still have a bit to work with, but most of it is lighter color stuff.

But…. I just scored a huge batch of black walnut that will have some nice pieces in the future.  Check this out….  There is some nice Myrtle wood in this pile too.
