Back In The Shop
« on: July 02, 2017, 04:17:23 pm »
Still hot down here but I had the urge to finish up some bows in the works. I didn't finish them but, all they need is getting "Dolled up". The green Bamboo/osage Lam will get a handle wrap and I'm de-greasing some Carp skins for the osage. Both are real good shooters but I'm not sure the exact weight. Somewhere between 45-55#, I dropped and broke my scale. But they are booth pulling past 28" and shooting #55 arrows like darts.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

 Nice bows Eddie , I'm really liking the bamboo backed wood bows these days since I bought one of James at the classic, that dye job on yours looks cool. I've been sweating my keester off here in Texas finishing up a couple of mine.

The color scheme of that lam bow looks like it would blend in to your surroundings down there perfectly.  (-S (W Looking forward to seeing um' all dolled up!  (-P

They look good Eddie. I've been working on an osage selfbow lately myself.
 Last week we had 49* one morning and 51* the next. Daytime in the low 70's
