Finished a longbow
« on: May 25, 2011, 03:33:00 PM »
I finally had time to finish a three piece take down bow and now I can get my trade bow cranked out this week.  Coco/Bocote/phenolic riser.  Limbs are Bocote, Aboo, and Coco wedges (from Kenny) tips are Sheep horn.   60 inches and 65 pounds.


Thanks for looking Shawn

Great job Shawn. That bocote on the limbs and in the riser looks absolutely awesome.

Thanks I'm getting low on sheep horn.  I need to find me some more.  I like the horns better in the rough rather than polished.

Yep you cant go wrong with coco and bocote.

you do good work. that is so cool. i can't believe that deer didn't wake up when you leaned your bow on her in order to take that picture. you are the deer whisperer.   :notworthy:     don
