A longbow I made...pics
« on: January 24, 2009, 12:27:00 PM »
Greetings All,

Here's a bow I am finishing up.  It's a 56" hybrid 46#@24".  Cocobolo/zebra riser with red elm vaneers over actionboo.  It also has elk antler tips.

Happy hunting,
Jason

Thats a looker.  If it shoots half as good as it looks, that bow could be dangerous!!!!
