A family of Maddogs
« on: January 15, 2010, 12:45:00 PM »
Here are the bows that Mike made for my family.
First up is my wife's mid-sized recurve. It is 27# at 26". Purpleheart limbs and riser w/ dyed purple tiger maple. I skinned the bow w/ prairie rattler that I colored purple.

 

 

 

Next up is my older daughter's bow.It is also a mid-sized recurve,25# at 26". Marblewood/mrytle grip w/ dyed bamboo limbs and horn tips.

Mike is making 3 bows for my grandkids from some Koa wood that I made a coffee table from when i was in 6th grade and living in Hawaii.  Excited and Mike is a real nice guy.  BW made me a PCH recurve from this KOA so the wood has a neat history.
