Got ******'s bow done. 60" recurve, limbs black walnut and black glass, riser shedua with black walnut accent. seems to shoot real nice. Hope it doesn't burn up or get stolen before Kelly says I can ship. Just a couple pictures for now.

Nice bow Al, it looks like a hunting machine. I like the low wrist grip as well.

Wonderful work al. You are a true craftsmen.
boy I know I would be working my tail off if I knew one of those bows could be mine as soon as I shipped off my bow.

great looking bow! Make someone happy!

So I've been having trouble figuring out a bow for my trade- I glued up a riser and limbs for a TD recurve- so I have those. Yesterday I got a wild hair and glued up a R/D longbow... guess 'll finish them both and see which one goes out. Here's the longbow- its got a multi-lam riser, bamboo core and black glass.

A couple more pictures...

Victim's bow was glued up this weekend. Still ahead of schedule compared to all previous years.

Still procrastinating ... But it's cool I got plenty of time .......................

Al, great looking bow!

Trux, also looking really slick. Can't wait to see it finished up.

My "plan A" turned out to be way way heavy, so I have to see if I can shed enough weight... As a precaution im glueing up "plan b" tomorrow. Should have some pics then too

Waiting on my victim to show a little more progress on their bow but "&$@@^*¥£'l " I do have some ideas for ya and possibly a bonus gift if I can get my hands on this particular item.

bigbob2 · « **Reply #318 on:** April 08, 2015, 05:14:00 AM »

all you guys completing your bows and I'm still weeks away from getting new glass . Roughed out the riser and belly lams about 5 weeks ago and that is where it stopped.

KellyG · « **Reply #319 on:** April 08, 2015, 04:59:00 PM »

I like the movement going on here. Good work. I got word that a bow is ready to go I just need to check the name. I hope they are not on the hold list so a bow can go out.
