« on: November 06, 2011, 04:50:36 pm »
finish this one last night.... i just finished putting the last coat of tru oil on and bam we have a 5.6 earthquake here in  okla. that was pretty intense  shook for 10 to 15 secs or more.. anyway this is bb wht oak .
60'' ntn 1.25'' at the handle and .5 at the tips it is 45# @26'' but will pull to 28'' easy , it shoots fast and didn't take more than .5 '' of set which supprised me being wht oak . its eastern woodland style.
thanks for looking.

Can't beat a well tillered D-bow, and that is a beauty.

That looks great! I really like how the red thread highlights the handle without needing to have a handle wrap. I may just use that on some of my D-bows.
