Nice whitetail killed with Apex Predator longbow!
« on: December 11, 2008, 12:56:00 PM »
My buddy Scott helped me build his bow.  It was my first mild R/D.  It was so sweet that I immediately built one for myself.  This doe is the first kill with an Apex Predator longbow, besides my hog and deer.  When I get a website, it will be on the photo album page.
Good job buddy!

 

Here is a photo of him while we were building her!

Very nice.  You make very attractive bows from looks of the others I have seen.

This particular bow is 66" NTN and draws 47@28.  She has a granadillo and osage riser w/granadillo overlays, two bamboo core lams, and zebra on the limb faces.

Here are a couple of more shots of his bow.

Very nice looking lines in that bow AP! If I was a longbow guy I'd have to talk with about what it takes to own one of your bows.
