He is just a baby 5 x 5 Brock, but he was my first Elk with a bow. Had a chance at a huge 7 x 7 the day before at 8 yards, but a rookie mistake cost me:) New Mexico 1994...

Nice looking bow Roy.  Clever using your own hair for silencers. What a great idea!

[Roy from Pa]

LMAO!!
 My guess is his beard gets cauget in the string while firing and he just moves it up or down the string instead of trying to pull it out.

Roy I really like the way that one turned out...  what a good lookin shooter!!!

I have only used leather or nothing at all for my bow grips. I was watchin the tube with my wife and braided some hemp string. What do you think? I feels a bit course but makes a pretty non slip grip? I just wrapped it around the grip for a look...  I can still use some horn or bone for a rest if I want with it....

Coaster That little yew bow I posted a while back had a hemp wrap and I grew to like it real well.

 I soaked it in watered down TB3 and it worked real well.

 Nice looking sticks folks.

 Looking forward to how your boo backed pecan turns out B.

Beautiful work Roy!My wife shoots wrong handed also(AKA Left handed).I tried to shoot her bow once.I coudent hit the broad side of a barn!I even found a bigger barn!still no luck!

I get the itch real bad after I glue up a bow.   It gets too close to being finished.  Even when I am super busy.  Last night I had dinner at 10 because I wanted to clean up and get the bow to a good floor tiller.  Here she is pulled back to 45#'s.  

 

I didn't level the bow when I took the pic but so far she bending evenly.

[Jorgy]

Roy that bow looks real good,going to make somebody really happy.
CM thats another sharp bow anxious to see it finished.

[soopernate]

Roy I suppose that bow is allright...but did ya crack open a Fruit Beer to celebrate?  Thats really all that matters to me ya know.
