Been called out...
« on: July 10, 2012, 01:18:27 am »
Someone asked me if I will ever post pics of a bow on here and I guess I should kick in to the pot since I'm the first to cry "post bow porn". 

Little character in the upper limb.


Darn thing got a mosquito bite just out of one of the fadeouts.  Gotta itch like crazy, I reckon.


Strung up.


Upper limb on the right side shows where it has a whoopty-do twist and snake combo.  About gimme fits trying to tiller that sucker.


And about 14 inches of draw.  Can't give you a full draw pic because after this photo was taken it got a bad whack to one limb and gave it a good gash in the back.  I am going to seal that area with superglue and cover it with a sinew wrap. 


When I get her patched up, I'll leather wrap the handle, dress her up in a nice finish, and get you a full draw picture as well as all her statistics.

Nice job, JW. I have a hard enough time with straight wood much less all those bumps and curves! ::)

Keep moving, StringleBerries, nothing to see here, nothing to see here.  No, you should not be getting excited about this chunk of osage.  However if you look closely enough in the photos I posted of my shop you will see something that may or may not pique your interest.  I won't say which one it is, though.  Nunya bidness!
