Just finished another longbow!
« on: October 24, 2009, 09:20:00 AM »
My Sunday school teacher had this one built for his uncle.  This one is a 62" long Ossabaw, my pronounced R/D longbow.  She draws 48@28.  I used action-boo cores, bubinga on the back, osage on the belly, bubinga and osage in the riser, and black phenolic overlays.

I like that one a lot.  For me the woods go together very well.

Dang Marty, you've done it again! Sweet looking bow. That should be a real shooter.   :thumbsup:

JV Rooster: If you've never shot one of Marty's bows, you're in for a real treat. My Apex is one of my keeper bows and the bow I grab when I go do some looking around and want to whack a few stumps. I also took it out twice during the early deer season but, was not able to connect on my first deer.
