2 YEARS and I tore it up
« on: June 05, 2013, 06:58:20 pm »
I had this birch long bow 70 incher well it was too stout even fer me to string , so I made it in 2010 I was wanting a war type bow it sat around and I hadn't the time ,  well I got some idle time   ,  so I got froggy and thought if I took a lil off here and lil off there maybe Ill get it down enough to string all was looking good but one limb had the tiller off , I hated too but it had a knotty spot that I was trying to leave meat on it  , but too get the tiller right I had too take more off , and guess what I knew it I sawed the good part off the limbs and ill try something else . ANY GOOD IDEAS?

YEPPPP, I don't back them usually . I thought maybe turning the limbs into a takedown as the PA mag highlighted in May issue.
