ERC Girls Bow
« on: June 11, 2013, 10:02:14 pm »
I made this one before the Marshall shoot for my oldest daughter in time for her to shoot there. Its Eastern Red Cedar from greg(gsulfridge)with a rawhide backing. I chased a lil over an inch of sapwood off,and actually chased and followed one growth ring on some tight ringed stuff, so there wood be a nice elb look to it as it has a full on round belly elb cross section to it. Its 51"ntn..20@20"....jicarillo tip overlays...and a simple design over the rawhide that my wife free handed..the pink string came from matt(mwirwicki)thanks for giving me some brother;)....my daughter wanted a purple bow so mine and her choice of wood was ERC ;) she loves it!!!  :) ok..enough of that ill let the pics of the bow and her tell the rest  ;)  ;D

Sweet! What did you use for the finish?
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Sweet looking little girl and bow Chris. Looks like you nailed the tiller on that bow, not easy to do on those kids bows either. Nice that the kids enjoy archery, comes in handy when their Dads a guy who loves bow making and family time. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

That's a cool little bow.  I think she likes it.

I bet she shoots better than I do.
