Grumley Brushbow inspired
« on: May 25, 2009, 06:31:52 pm »
Nearly done with this one and wanted to share. Its patterned off a 1940's Nels Grumley Brushbow that he made for Bear Archery. It is 60" overall with yew underlay brush nocks, 56# @ 28" and 1.75 wide limbs. Very quick shooter at my 26.5" draw.

The trademark feature of these bows was the brush nocks like this






Very quick little bow much like the ones Nel used to hunt with
