One for a buddy
« on: June 14, 2016, 02:56:00 PM »
After several months of tinkering around I finally finished this one for a buddy of mine. Koa and Cocobolo riser and Koa veneers from Big Jim. Sheep horn overlays. Beaver tail from Big Jim also.  Elk ivory inlay.  58" 49# @ 29 1/2". 2 piece take down.
This is KennyMs design. I'm still tweaking on my own.

That's a special piece of work there my friend. The wood combo, beaver tail, and sheep horn all work together well.

Thx everyone! I forgot to add that this is his first trad bow! I don't think he's laying down his compound completely though. At least " not yet"!!!!   :thumbsup:
