Refinishing a vintage bow
« on: March 03, 2009, 11:31:00 PM »
Hi There, I'm brand new to the trad thing, having shot a bow with training wheels for a while.  I recently bought a Bear Polar bow in zebra wood, 66", 37lb.  The limbs are straight, no cracks in the glass, but the finish is crazed.  I'd like to restore it to new condition, and was hoping for some advice.  Thank you!
