A fine bow is now on the way from Montana to Australia. Beth sent me these photographs:

 

 

 

 

From memory, the limb veneers are zebrawood; the riser is Macassar ebony and rosewood-stained Dymondwood (for low-stretch string). This is the first flared-riser that Dave has made for a one-piece recurve; he did a fine job, eh.

The bow will be around the 65# @ 28" mark, give or take.

Once again, the Windauers have been so helpful and absolutely top-notch in their kind service.

I'll keep you all posted with more photos when she arrives!

Cheers,

Ben    :archer:

Very beautiful bow.......Ben. Now your gonna be the "envy" down-under. A really nice choice of woods. I'm really starting to like the one-piece bows.

Nice looking bow there Ben.  I want to see the results of that bad boy making it's home in Oz!    :archer:

Great looking bow Ben!  That rosewood dymanwood and Macassar look great together.  The rosewood looks a bit like Cocobolo.

I'm amazed how different the 1-piece and the TD look.

Is that a low grip?
