Simple Stick

Just a simple Oak stick, that is smooth to draw and quite to shoot. Mixed green and red dye to get the muddy coffee color that just looks right on this bow. Pulling forty five pounds at twenty eight inches. Sixty eight inches long, tip to tip.

Lombard,
     That bow is very nice, the full draw looks exceptional, sir. Cant describe it exactly but when it's drawn the whole thing "looks" smooth and effortless.

Really nice. Stave or board?

I wonder how oak would do with a hickory back?

Was this from a tree or a board? Makes me want to make another red oak bow.
