« on: July 08, 2008, 08:51:43 pm »
I got it glued up last night I would have got some more done on it but by the time I got home from James' house it started to rain here..Not complaining though we need it bad!!! Here is a couple of pic's.. It is a tri lam hickory backed Osage core Ipe belly.. Handle is hickory Osage and purple hart. Right now it's 62" over all 1 1/8" wide down to 1/2" at tips 1" reflex at handle I will post more pic's as it goes along..

Recurveshooter.. It is called purple hart..fairly hard wood almost brittle..easy to work with if you go with the wood but the other way it can be a pain..

Pretty nice Tri-lam. Full Draw picture out of PhotoBucket was pretty fuzzy. A clearer one for July Laminate BOM consideration would be good.
Any other information about this Kid's Event?
