another one down!
« on: August 14, 2013, 09:35:56 pm »
So I have a dear friend that told me " I haven't done any archery since I as a kid (over 40 years) I would like to come over and do some shooting", so this is my answer. He hasn't seen it yet, and I hope he likes it, and I hope it brings back some of that childhood nostalgia of our first longbow! Its Pacific Yew, about 50# @ 28'', and is 65" T2T. all critiques are welcome so I can fix anything before i surprise him with it later this week. thanks;)

My only problem with it is that it's not mine! That's a classy looking bow with a text book tiller. Well done.

Sweet piece of yew.  Nice work!
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
