another plains style bow
« on: April 18, 2012, 01:27:02 pm »
Here is another plains type bow i put together.  its 52" long classic gullwing with flipped tips. unbacked and 45# @ 27" draw  quite a draw outa this little bow.  pic is probably only drawn to 26". Tillered it out to 27" to see if it would hold up and it has done so perfectly.  tiller is a tad off for my liking, but still pretty close.  nothing to special, just showing you my experience in dabbling out of my normal realm of bow making.
