Sneak Peek - Cherubim

[Ranger B]

I've been working on this bow for a while now. I've been able to get a lot done over the past week. I still have a lot to do but I thought I'd show you where I am. I've been wanted to make a selfbow with a customized grip for a while. This winged elm has a lot of promise.

LOL.  Actually, last summer I went to a very low, flat grip on my target bow.  After about two weeks I developed a bad case of tendonitis in my left elbow.  I couldn't shake it.  Two weeks ago I had to get a steroid injection and my physical therapist and ortho surgeon both said to go back to a medium to high wrist grip to relieve the stress on the elbow.  So I decided I'd make this selfbow with a medium wrist grip as well.  I just hope the tendonitis never returns.

Looking good now to see her finished up.
