Another new Maddog!
« on: April 22, 2011, 07:16:00 PM »
Mike has outdone himself now! Myrtle limbs,myrtle/walnut grip.Myrtle came from Idaho Curt. Bow is a takedown using the bowbolt.Grip and tips have sheep horn overlays.Mike owed me a favor, so I twisted his arm to make me another bow w/ clear glass,LOL.Bow is a Midsized Longbow 51" and 51# @ 26".

That's a sharp looking R/D.  I really like the look of the sheep horn.  How does that feel on the hands in the grip area.  Have you shot it yet?

Mike that is very nice looking bow.  The sheep horn really sets it off, the limbs are stunning as well.
