A bow for a friend-my first in a while
« on: April 03, 2010, 09:47:00 PM »
Made this bow for my friend who heat treats my knife blades. Have shown it on the bowyers bench but I didn't know how many of you look over there.
 Bacote and wenge riser, action-boo cores and beautiful bacote veneers from Kennym. 64" long, 52#@28"
 Thanks for looking, Mike

When I shoot 3D with Steve Hartley (voodoo) he always shoots his bow from Bodork. Mike your bows are very nice in hand also.
