Two New Bows
« on: April 10, 2010, 10:35:27 pm »
Here's a couple new bows that i just completed. One is made of Bambo and Ipe which is laminated with Brazilian cherry. the other is made of Bambo and Argentina Osage which is laminated with yellowheart, Padauk and Brazilian Cherry. They are are 66 in TTT. They are 1 1/8 at the handle and 3/8 at the tip. ok i finnished up the osage and here are the pic's and the weight on them are 55@28 on the boo/ipe and 50#@28 on boo/osage.
