58" belly mount longbow with 13" riser
« on: August 06, 2015, 04:12:00 PM »
Finally getting back to building and working on this prototype short longbow. Heres the profile in the rough and the fd curve. I draw 28 1/2" so this will work good for me. Working on shaping the riser now.

Looks good- it should be a shooter looking at your fd curve. I'm with Jess on wanting to see more.
