Pau am elb 61@28

This is an English longbow I just made. It was using up some offcuts of pau am and Honduras rosewood that had been lying about for ages getting in my way!

Turned out really nice.  Is there a difference between pulling dead weight from a fitness machine versus a bow. The reason I ask is because not to toot my own horn but I'm no wimp and pulling 50# on a machine is not easy especially if that was a bow and flinging 50-75 arrows at the range.

When I was in my 20's I good easily pull 60# repeatedly on a good day but ....?   :dunno:

And here is another! This one is 42# @ 28 and has some nice albino buffalo hornnocks. I tillered this a bit more elliptically for better target performance.
Both of these bows are 71 inch ntn and cheers guys  :)

Beautiful work! I like the difference in tiller - good examples of different approaches to one design.

beautiful work, especially like that 'albino' horn tips.Great tiller and seeing the difference between bows with different purposes.That is a subtlety that might escape some people.
