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.

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.

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.

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.
