Bamboo backed Jatoba and Osage
« on: October 29, 2008, 07:54:21 am »
Here are a couple of pics of a Tri-Lam I made. Core is Jatoba and the belly is Argantine Osage. The riser and power strip are Pau Fero. The bow is 62" and draws 55#@28" Off the form the tips came up 2" above the handle. When I was done tillering they still came up an 1 1/2" It is a real shooter

 Incredible, Very nicely done. Excellent profile, glue lines are perfect and everything flows beautifully. The tiller is perfect, spot on.  Want to trade something???   Keenan

MAn, I've been away for abit...Hunting season and all, you know.....
Thant is a sweet bow! I like the tiller alot. Full draw looks real good to my eye anyways.

Looks like a design I'd like to try...got the specs on this baby????
