Paddle stlye elm (not for BOM)

[ken75]

sweet bow , i started a paddle bow this mornin for a trade hope it comes out as well

[hammertime]

ok a bit more bend through the handle on the next one,I'm working on one very similiar-these are a little tougher to tiller than your pyarmid or slow taper design (for me at least) but well worth the effort.Ths one was from an real nice elm that the grubs hadn't gotten to yet- anyways thanks for looking-Hammertime

Super bow, I like it very much. Have still some elm, makes an idea to me, because the length of thes staves is similar to mine.

I think you have plenty of bend in the handle, it could bend a touch more at mid limb, halfway between the handle and the tips. Just my opinion.

Thanks Darcy see what you mean- not much though,when running my 3" straight edge along I thought she looked good.I don't tiller bows like I should-usually careful with my tiller to brace height give some long strung up time and then start shooting ::)I confess not patient enough but after 6 years of this I'm learning.Thanks uwe-Hammertime
