tri lam bamboo backed ipe W/osage. pics
« on: December 31, 2014, 01:09:59 pm »
Here is one of my recent bows. This one is a tri lam bamboo back with a bamboo core and ipe belly. Handle is mainly osage ipe and black cherry. 20" ipe power lam. It weighs in at an even 50# @28"  63" long. Bamboo is stained then sanded to give it an aged look that blends right in. Thanks for looking    Jesse

Very very nice! Your tiller is spot on for a Reflex Deflex also.

Target to hunting, you have the waterfront covered.  Great looking.  Congrats!
