A new bow for my wife
« on: February 26, 2012, 04:38:00 PM »
I just completed a new bow for my wife.  You may remember a few months ago I glued one up that came in much heavier than hoped for her, that one became mine.  ;)    I adjusted my stack and this one came in just right for her.  It's 58"-35# @ 28".  It has a bubinga and zebrawood riser with zebrawood limbs.

Thanks for looking,
-Jay

That is a great looking bow Jay. Does that mean she gets invited to the shoots? I hope to see the whole family this year.

Your wife's bow looks phenomenal! Is there glass on the limbs? How does it shoot?  Those are my specs (35# @28"). It sure is beautiful.

Bob - there is glass on both the back and belly.  It shoots well, she's looking forward to shooting it a bunch this spring and summer.

I also really like the lines of the 50's style.
