new pig sticker
« on: January 29, 2012, 06:50:00 PM »
I'm starting to get pretty excited.I'm going hog hunting in a couple of months. I told my wife I ought to have a new bow for my first hog hunt. So I finished this awhile back and thought I would share. It came out at 55#@28"62".The riser is myrtle and east indian rosewood. I used foam cores for the limbs with quarter sawn sycamore veneers. Can't wait for spring hopefuly I can try it out. For now the foam pig in the basement will have to do.

That's some great looking work.  It puts some fancy furniture to shame.  I hope it helps an arrow find its way into a pig for you too!

You did a great job! I had to do a double take as it almost disappears in the background you used.

Hopefully I can show ya'll some pig pics as well. I'm waiting on a new string right now but should be shooting again in a couple days. I've  also been busy fletching a few extra arrows to take with me.
