Meat and Potato Bow/pictures
« on: June 30, 2008, 07:14:02 pm »
It has been a little while since I posted any bows I actually have built several here lately.My wife asked me to make her one,and to put gold leaf on it ,well I did and it looked like something from ancient Egypt ,if you couldn't hit something with it you could blind it with the glare from the gold.So I redid it.58 inch knock to knock 45 pounds of draw at twenty eight inches,rawhide backed ,brown paint,part copperhead skins ,black elk hide handle.Cow bone tip overlays and strike plate.I got me a tripod for the camera like Andrea S suggested so hopefully my picture quality has improved enjoy and remember the critique given today may be the critique given tomorrow just joking fire away thats how we improve

A little fuzzy, but the tiller looks nice and smooth.  Justin

the money for the tri-pod,not wasted.
always nice to have one,you can take it hunting and leave it set up next to you with the camera already to go and take pice while ya hunt ;D

you might want to try a better camera though. i dont  know what kind you have right now or what you spent on it, i use the one i bought for my wife for x-mas last year(when shes not looking >:D).its 8 mega pixals at only 150 bucks,good deal for the quality and the $$.

like j.s. stated,a little fuzzy but tiller looks decent,hows it shoot? thats all that really matters and that  your happy with the outcome.

                                                                                        peace,
