Bow for my nephew or me? I have decided
« on: April 16, 2015, 04:38:00 PM »
I just finished this.  Haven't decided if it's for my nephew or for me.  I am leaning towards me and maybe make a longbow for him.  Riser pauferro with shedua accent.  Limbs red elm.  62" 45# @ 29".  Tried to get about 3/8" more forward riser than I normally had in the past.  The clear glass has absolutely no defects in it.

That's just a super classy bow. Those red elm veneers are really beautiful without being flashy.

Really sweet love that riser and the way you contoured the limbs ends.

Nice. Maybe you can have him over for a shoot off to see who will own it.
