Quite a looker,,,
« on: February 14, 2015, 06:09:00 PM »
Finished up this bow recently and wanted to share some pics. Bubinga riser with curly maple stripes with accents of black glass and maple. Black glass and bubinga overlays and tips. The veneers are figured bubinga from Troy Breeding. 64" 49#@26"  Very smooth draw with no hand shock. I really like the way the stripe came out on the bottom ramp. Thanks for looking! Mike

Great job Mike! That stripe on the cap came out nice. Some times I forget how nice bubinga can be but you nailed it.

Dang, I was gonna make one just like that!   :rolleyes:  Guess I'll give it a shot anyways. Seriously though, she is a master piece. Have never used bubinga before but you have made a believer out of me. Awesome job, awesome bow Mike.

Guys, I have held this bow and shot this bow...these pics do not do it justice...Mike trapped the limbs and did a beautiful job...It is really an artistic work through bow building...And yes it shoots sweet with  lots of power!
