Hi Guys,

Its a Bamboo backed Hickory bow, i shot about 300 arrows with ist sofar.
Handle is Plum (Prunus domestica), Tipp overlays are Apple.
She mesures 146,5 cm ntn (little less than 58")
With at the fades is 3,8 mm tipps are under 7 mm
She weighs 390 gramms (0,8598 lb) and pulls 48#@28"
I finished it with Shellac and linseed öl varnish

She doesn't suck ;) and shoots an arrow pretty fast i guess.
Thats it!
