One from Mr Bub
« on: June 04, 2018, 01:57:32 pm »
Some months ago Bubby and I decided to do maple board bow trade. I forgot we agreed to send at same time and I sent his month or two ago.
Couple weeks ago Bub sent mine. Just getting around to posting it because things have been bit hectic here on home front and a trip up to that lil town in Michigan.

Maple board selfbow, heat treated belly, walnut tips and riser. About 46 @ 26". Am loving it!
Thank ya, Mr Robertson!!

I saw that bow in person.  You did a great job on it Bubby.  I like the Charlie Brown handle wrap design. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Yup, that's a good one. Nice rig.

Very nice board bow there.
