Yew wood takedown selfbow
« on: March 17, 2021, 09:11:19 am »


Finished up a yew wood takedown selfbow. 55@26








Sealed with Pine Hollow Longbows Bow Sealer  https://pinehollowlongbows.com/products/all-natural-bow-sealer





Made this with my new Pine Hollow Longbows Oval Takedown sleeve system. These come with a 4'' oval shaped handle and two brass insert sleeves that make the glue up of the handle section so much easier than the old style D shaped that only come with one brass sleeve. Here is a link to them.

Looks handsome, pic of it apart showing the sleeve please?
Gotta love the caramel and cream of a Yew bow

Looks nice Mike. Got a full draw for us? From the braced profile I’m guessing it looks nice.
