finished bamboo backed osage tri lam
« on: August 16, 2016, 01:56:00 PM »
Finished this one up today. Bamboo back, 1/16 maple lam, and an osage core. Handle is hickory and walnut, and tips are maple, walnut and horn. James Parker/JD Jones inspired dye job.

Kinda looks a little squirrelly since I glueg it up with even limbs but spaced and cut the lower limb shorter so it has less reflex than the upper. I would be more bothered by it but the bow shoots great.

48# at 28" 63"ntn.

Nice looking bow, really like the stain job, can you share how it's done or is it a proprietary secret.
