New Bow
« on: January 18, 2010, 03:50:00 PM »
It's finally here. My first foray into traditional archery since I was a kid.  Gene Sanders made me a 56" TD recurve 50# @ 28 with zebra wood and wenge riser and bamboo cores with zebra wood limbs.  Outside my wife and kids, it is the sweetest thing that these two hands have ever held.  If I were not so technically challenged, I would post some pictures along with my first attempt at fletching and wrapping arrows.  At 15 steps, my first two arrows found their mark.  After all those wasted years with wheels, I am like a kid again.

Love those G&L bows!  Gene and Larry do make a mean bow.  And I always wanted one of there T/D longbows.  What kind of arrow/broadhead set-up are you going to shoot?
