I was super excited to see what Vince of Lonesome Wind Longbows had come up with when he said he was finished. I am very thankfull for all his hard work, timeand effort he put in I couldn't be happier.

Wow that IS a looker for sure. What are the wood combos? I don't believe I've ever seen that spotted one before. Cool!

The two main woods are Snakewood which is the spotted wood, and Bloodwood which is the reddish color wood. I believe Birtch was used for the thin white accent stripes.

It isn't shown, but Vince even applied Cane Break skin to the back of the bow too. It looks amazing I will have to get a picture of that too.

We ended up making a twin set accually. Right and left handed both are 62' in height and 55 lbs at 30' draw. I am gong to see about having him make a new set of limbs that are 60-65 lbs at 30' draw too.
