First recurve?
« on: January 06, 2014, 10:16:49 pm »
Well here she is hickory 62" ntn she pulls 55 # at 28. Osage tips and some osage strips on the back of curves and handle. Fake snake pattern on back with a sew on leather handle. Also made my string. Hope it is worthy of this page. Afraid to post but here goes nothing.

Nothing to be afraid of here. That's a great looking bow, wouldn't have guessed it was your first.
