58" Hickory
« on: May 20, 2013, 08:02:01 pm »
Had this stave laying around and just couldn't get myself to work on it.
Well yesterday I thought I might as well.
58" ntn
#50@26"
1 3/8"@ handle to 3/4"@ tips
Trapped the back and tempered the belly.
It has some deflex just above the handle top limb. I just worked with it.
It shoots really well, I'm happy with it.

Love them bendy handle jobs.  This one looks very well balanced with a great tiller. Simple and effective.

Good looking bow Don. Love that style and you not only made her look good but you got a first rate tiller going to boot. :)
