New Bow
« on: January 02, 2010, 12:17:00 AM »

Here is a new one I am working on to take to Texas in a couple of weeks. It's a vine maple bow 51'' long and around 60 lbs. Sinew backed with elk sinew and then backed with antelope rawhide Shoots great.

Good work Mike! Watch your step down there as just about everything there wants to bite, stick, or sting you...lol
I remember tripping once and the places they had to pull cactus thorns from weren't pretty for anyone to look at...lol
Good hunting!

great looking bow Mike...pot some more pics when you get a chance.  How does the vine maple compare to osage?  I was in your neck of the woods yesterday...took my son some fire wood and ate at Gringos...he lives right across the water from the restaurant.
good luck!
