And...?
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Its a Tanjavur LB, macassar ebony, riser, tips and lams with hickory and walnut core.  55#@29"  60" bow.  Just got back inside from shooting it again, its a sweet shooting bow.   :readit:  

Sorry Killdeer, Greg is the same bowyer that made Roger Norris' new bow too, that he hadn't got to post pics of yet.

I'm pretty sheltered in the bow shooting world. lol  I have another bow from Java Man, a short recurve.  They are both great bows.  Before I got the recurve I was shooting a LB that I thought had no hand-shock, well it didn't compared to what I was shooting before that.    :knothead:  

So compared to those, these are more better.  :biglaugh:
