Starleigh's bow
« on: March 22, 2011, 11:28:44 pm »
Well it lived and shot well.I shot alot of arrows through it and it worked fine  so I finished it up put a zebra handle on it I think the uper limb is still a little stiff I mite scrape on it some more. It's pulling around 25# at 17.5 inches she will have to grow a little to use it. And  yes I saved it and it works woot so my first bow is finished ;D time to get started on my hickory backed with rawhide one

That is what it's all about. Learn from the current one so the next is better.
