Batch of Yew wood bows
« on: February 21, 2013, 04:19:39 am »
Hi All,

We are preparing for a series of 3 trade shows coming up over the next month.  We have been busy in the shop trying to get stuff ready.  My wife snapped a couple photos of some bows drying on the rack after being oiled.   They turned out great and wanted to share them with those who appreciate good lines and wood grain.

There will be more time as the dust settles to show them off individually but for now here they are.
enjoy,  and all yew wood.

Beautiful, you have been busy.  ;D I like the glued on arrow passes, I seen horn and antler, right?

 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Holy smokes, those are lovely. I'd be proud as a bannie rooster to own one of your bows. Good luck with your show. Thanks for sharing.

great looking bows.  I also looked up your website.  A very nice site.  Looks like you keep pretty busy with shows and classes.

Nice.  Very very nice.
