1st Bamboo Back & Belly
« on: April 23, 2009, 06:55:11 pm »
This is the first bamboo back and belly R/D that I have done so I thought I would share it with you guy's.. It is 62"NTN 42#. Starting at the back of the bow through the handle the lams are Bamboo,Ipe,Osage,Ipe (core), Rose wood and hickory.. The tips are Osage and Kings wood with a small wedge of Osage under the boo...It is sweet to shoot. Dead quiet with no hand shock..

Great looking bow David. You sure are getting fancy these days. ;) The layered handle is stunning and especially the ivory colored hickory.  Beautiful.

David-
You are seriously upping your game.  That is one sick bow.  Make sure it makes it to Pappy's.  If you don't have room for it on the way back to N.C.  don't worry I'll have plenty of room in my truck.  Seriously, that is one great looking bow,  awesome job.
