Title: Mojam donation table kids bow.
Post by: lebhuntfish on July 06, 2016, 11:17:09 pm

I'm donating this little bow to the auction table at mojam.
IIt's red streak Osage with a Walnut insert in the tips. It has cherry and Leopard wood overlay recurves.  It has some snake on the top limb and a hole in the bottom limb.  A leather lacing handle wrap with a thick piece of leather for an ambidextrous arrow shelf.  Four coats of spray on lacquer.
It holds about 2inches of reflex and it's 23@24.
Shoots great and hits pretty hard for it weight.
Sorry for the  pics but I haven't had time to take good outside pictures. Thanks!

Patrick

Very cool little bow, Patrick. Gonna be at least one lucky kid at MoJam
 I'm a little concerned that the overlays, especially where the string groove is  is beyond the tip of the limb. Looks like the leverage could break the glue joint with the leverage.

Some kid will be super happy with that bow. Good job

Thanks a ton guys,  it's a fun little bow.

Yeah Pat,  I was concerned about the nocking point myself when I done it. I wouldn't do that on a bow that was much over 25 to 30 pounds.
I probably won't build one like this again.  But it doesn't seem to be a problem with this particular bow.  I have put a bunch of arrows through her with no issues.
