Hickory pyramid style bow ~ 50# @28”
« on: May 29, 2022, 07:14:17 pm »
Hey guys! It’s been a while since I’ve posted a finished bow! This is a board bow that I decided to make after all my staves checked. It’s funny how much easier it is to make a board bow than it is to make a stave bow haha!

The handle is poplar
Tip overlays are rosewood given to me by Guy
The finish is boiled linseed oil


Hope you guys like it! I’d say that this is one of my better bows!
