Well I finally got the finish on a bow I had made this spring. It it a one piece hybrid longbow 58" and 50@28"  Limbs are bamboo core with a vurly maple and cocobolo footed limb. The stripes in the splice and running through the riser are red/white/black phenolic. The riser is a lights out piece of cocobolo. The neat thing on the curly maple is, I found where someone dumped about 12-15 rough sawn 4x4 eight foot long . I was looking at the pile and noticed they were maple. After looking through them, I noticed where 2 of them had very nice curl in them. So I took them home and planed them down for this bow.

And the shelf is even on the correct side.
Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.

I shot it before the finish and it shot great. I built another one previous that I have been hunting with and it is the same specs. I love that bow, infact it is laying in the background of one of the pics i think. I resprayed it today as well.  Bow is very dead in the hand
