Mullberry finished [Pictures added]
« on: December 01, 2014, 07:20:22 am »
Been working on this on and off for a while, finely got it finished, shoot really nice/pretty fast and smooth, lots of early draw weight and light in the hand. 62 n-n 47@26 sheep horn tip overlays and D97 string, the Mullberry was 3 years old and given to me by Clyde Gaskins at the Classic, not sure if it is white or Red, he cut in OK in his sons front yard, anyone that has been to the Classic has to know Clyde, quite the character and very generous with his giving.  :)

Nice job, Pappy! :)

Nice bow pappy. I need to try another stick of mulberry this weekend.

Nice work, Pappy. I think mulberry is an understated bow wood and you just proved it.  8)
