First Bow Done (pics)
« on: September 26, 2011, 12:37:00 PM »
It's not perfect, but I'm pleased.  I've learned a lot and have better confidence about my skills.  I'm just relieved its not in two pieces (or more).

Tiller looks nice on that one.  So many first timers come on here with hinges and stiff spots all over the place.

Sorry I forgot the stats.  Its 72" a red oak board bow, backed with drywall tape. It pulls 35# @ 28".

Nice bow, and at that length if you wanted to raise the poundage you could pike it. But I would not I would just shoot it and build another.   :)
