New hunting bow....and a "kudos" to the bowyer
« on: February 10, 2010, 03:34:00 PM »
Lots of you guys know my dear friend pebowbender (tradgang member).  He's been building his own 2pc and 3pc longbows for a while, now.

Recently, he started on another....and I have to give credit where due.  He's absolutely outdone himself with his latest addition.

Here's what he started with (1st progress photo)....

 

And...the almost finished product....

 

He's a helluva bowyer; an accomplished hunter....and a great friend/mentor.

Great job, buddy!

Great work as usual Page. I have no doubt that in you hands It will be a tack driver. I'm getting ready to glue up a couple new sets of limbs. I doubt they will look as good as yours. Don
