Vine Maple Bow
« on: January 19, 2015, 05:03:24 pm »
Here are some pics of a vine maple bow that I posted about a few weeks ago. This one gave me fits trying to align the string and tiller because of excessive reflex, but it finally came to heel. The bow is 63" ntn and pulls 45# @ 27". The handle and arrow pass are natural elk hide. It has simple self nocks and no arrow rest. It's nothing fancy, but manages to put an arrow out with authority. Thanks for looking.

Did you name it, "rebellious"?  I like those contrasting colors together.
