ash board bow- happy b-day
« on: February 16, 2009, 05:12:00 PM »
One of my wife's friends want a bow for her husbands birthday.  he shoots compound but loves longbows.  I had a really premo ash board and whipped this up over the weekend.  Usually i back every ash bow i make but this board was nearly perfect.  66" ntn 56# @ 28",  2" wide at the fades to 1/2' nocks.  i also made some poplar arrows to go with it.  they weighted 600 grns +/- 10 for all 4.  it shoots about as well as any bow i have ever made.  Maybe this will convinve him to go completely trad.

Very nice bow, and arrows too. I really like the handle. Wish I could "whip" them out like that.

Any trouble with string follow?  Very cool riser.  What exactly is it?
