Hickory bow, sinew back

[artcher1]

Looking shape Jason! Hey, I cut shelves in many of mine. For what I'm seeing with your bow you can easily cut a shelf in. As long as you have a handle depth of 1 1/2" X 1 1/4" width (even 1") you can safely cut to within 3/8" of center. That's equivalent to shooting around a 3/4" handle vs your now 1 1/4" handle. Big big advantage when it comes time to match up some arrows.........Art

Sounds like a plan Art!  

The handle is 1 1/2" deep, by 1 1/4" wide, so that idea of cutting a knock shelf into the side of it should work out just fine!
Great,...
Thanks fellas!!
