One for my brother
« on: July 13, 2016, 07:11:00 PM »
I had a fella give me a whole bunch of this wood. I have no idea what it is, but he says its Brazilian??? Any guesses? Its pretty heavy.
 Anyway i made my brother a bow from it. Came in at 48#, its 62" T2T. simple maple accent strip in the riser, and for the tips, and back overlay.http://s773.photobucket.com/user/anerson123/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160711_194911.jpg.html?filters[user]=97846871&filters[recent]=1&sort=1&o=4
