Hickory backed ERC

[GB]

This is my latest bow.  I wanted to try a mild R/D profile.  It's 65" NTN, weighs 16 ounces, and draws 45#.  I went with a long red elm power lam instead of a full core lam.
This is the second one that I've used ERC for the belly and I'm pretty impressed with the wood.  Both of them have taken very little set.
F/d was taken before I put the finish on.  Thanks for looking.

Wow! Helluva nice bow you've made yourself there mate. The wood looks stunning, the unstrung profile is great and that full draw looks wicked!

I do not understand most of what you said but the bow is elegant and really looks like a performer. Power lam and full lam? Thanks so much for sharing.

You bet.Been waiting myself for this one.That's a sweet looking bow.Nice job on that.Hope mine with ERC core I'm doing turns out just close to that.I'd be satisfied.

Thanks guys!  I'll post a picture of it braced, Ed.  I used aniline dye on the hickory.
Red elm is the stuff that haunts me.  I've tried 3 times and can't make a bow from it.

Here it is braced.



Good luck with yours, Ed, looks like you're off to a good start.  I really like the way aniline dye looks on maple, too, if you go that route.
