one for myself. new pics 10-22
« on: August 27, 2012, 07:17:00 PM »
This is my hunting bow now. I finally made one for myself. No skins, just air for a backing. I used this bow as a prop for a heat bending demo at mojam this past summer and have finally got around to finishing it. Tips are horn and zebrawood. Handle is deerhide from roy on tradgang.  Pretty clean and straight piece except for a few pins and one knot.  It has great cast and shoots well. 58in.ntn  56@26

Looking good Dave, the deer should be lined up just to have a chance of being shot by that.

Nice bow, Dave. I like that little arrow rest. Doesn't look like you cut-in a shelf, but left enough wood to use after shaping the handle.

That is a nice looking bow Dave and I'm sure that it shoots as good as it looks. I have one like it that Dave built for me last year and it's one of the finest shooting wood bows that I own.
