Bama Make-Over ----Beast Slayer

[DannyBows]

I got this older BamaBows Hunter used awhile back. She's 50@28 and 66" long. She was a looker with the dark stained Tiger Maple, but the grain was so nice I decided to refinish her.

This first pic is how she came to me.

 

These are after the refinish.

 

 

 

I was at the range shooting her today and a Beast was terrorizing the place. I decided to put it down before someone got hurt. Made a perfect 20 yard shot right in the 'camera'. Thick skinned little monster and I only got a hole in one side, but it didn't go far.

Great Job doesn't even look like the same bow.

Nice work! Looks awesome, shoots awesome. The perfect combo!

Great job on the refinish..!

    I like the look of the Tiger Maple either way but I think I like the refinish better.

Isn't it amazing when you bring the character of that Tiger Maple out! Awesome look!

Nice job.......not bad shoot'n either....lol!

The bow did look great with both finishes and the only reason I refinished this one is that I also have a 2pc Bama in dark stained Curly Maple.

Both are really sharp looking imo...great refinish job.

Beautiful job Dan, what product did you use for the finish. Haven't been here in a while, no time. Taking my Bama to Alaska for blacktails next month. I'll let you know how that goes.

did nate make it without a leather grip orginally?

if so, that's the 1st i've seen that way.

my curly maple bama is stained like yours was, and i like it that way, but very nice work.

did you lose any draw weight in the refinish?

I used MinWax Poly.

I took the leather grip off for pics. The one in the refinished pics is the grip that came with the bow.

Don't believe I lost any draw weight, I only did the riser.
