ELB for Thesquirrelslinger...
« on: June 28, 2013, 06:56:13 pm »
Ok, here is your bow squirrelslinger. It is a maple purple heart hickory trilam, 72 1/4" from nock to nock, and pulls a nice 61# @ 28", as you were wanting, :). String is linen, finish is pure tung oil. Ended up keeping about 1/4" or so reflex, and shoots pretty good actually, hope you like it!

Thanks a lot! I like it!
Its perfect.
what are the tips? Its amazing, it looks like a bow I would dream about(and never even hope to get!) and drool over, but I know that I will be seeing it in person soon! I think I know what I will be shooting for a while once I get it!

It looks like you are definitely getting the hang of those tri-lams!! ;)
