New bow from Idahocurt - do you like myrtle?
« on: February 18, 2015, 09:02:00 PM »
I just received a new bow I ordered from Idahocurt/hunter bows. Man what a bow, Curt has some of the nicest woods I have seen and he knows how to combine them. My bow is 58" long and 60#@28". The limbs have myrtle veneers with sheep horn tips. The riser is bastone walnut with mango accent strips and myrtle on the front of the riser and myrtle burl at the back of the site window. I have only been able to shoot it in my garage but boy does it feel good. The grip is very nice and really spits out the arrows and is super quiet. Love it Curt, thank you! Here are a few pictures.

Curt is a super guy and very talented, with an eye for wood.  I have discussed with him ordering a bow at some point in the future, when I do it will be one of his hybrids.  

That bow of yours is absolutely ace!

I was trying to get some Spalted Mango veneers similar to what Curt had used in the past, but he could not get what I was looking for.
He's now holding some very nice myrtle for me for a future bow that Abe Penner will be building soon.   :D  
I highly recommend him also.   :thumbsup:

Awesome.  Just awesome.  But I would like to see the holes covered up with an overlay of some type.

Never mind.  I just noticed they serve a purpose like a Shawnee.
