I gotta try some hard maple this winter!
Do it, do it!
Looks like you had good instruction.
Ya, they were all right I guess...
Just kidding, they were awesome. Great guys too! And thanks a lot Adam, you've unleashed the monster.
I find myself thinking about bows when I fall asleep, first thing when I wake up, and every where in between. Probably dream about them too... I keep thinking about who I know that I think needs a bow, and the list is growing. I think all my money that I was saving to go on vacation this winter is gonna be gone before winter comes
Wonder what the girlfriend is going to think about that?
Scott, the bow is about 1 and a half inches at the widest part, and then starts to taper a little past mid-limb. Here's a couple unbraced pictures. It ended up taking just under an inch of set, and after shooting for half an hour, takes about an inch and five eighths of string follow. I love the maple, and I can't see any reason why my next few bows won't be maple. And living in Saskatchewan, Canada, it's kinda patriotic too!
Take care guys!
