Every bow I build for me is all about hunting . In fact I just flat blacked one for the turkey blind.... :o

I’m a hunter through and through but my traditional gear is all about the craftsmanship. I like the look of wood.

I hunt (and miss), and I shoot 3d as well. I also like beautiful wood and I like to display my bows.

I was really on the fence about this but my buddy was pretty adamant about leaving it.... I sure hope my victim likes blue.

Blue is good, and if he don't like it , there's always flat black... :laughing:

I hope your victim is a smurf.

I'm mostly a hunter, I shoot a lot in the off season as well as going to a few 3d shoots.

I like the blue Lonnie, it's even two tone!

Glued all my pieces together today and they all stayed in place. There was a point when I almost broke out the stapler as lonnie suggested. It's a little over poundage but I think by the time its tillered and the edges rounded it'll be about perfect.

Even has a little pink in her.

Blue is under appreciated. I might have to reconsider my lam choice after seeing this;

Thanks guys, it's a 60"er. I was trying to build it to work at my 30" draw length. I was thinking about taking it down to 59"s to shorten up the hooks just a little but I think I better leave it alone or it'll get to heavy.
