Title: Finished with the last Board
Post by: Phillip K on June 08, 2008, 12:44:13 am

Yep I tried, I got it at 47 @ 28 still at 66". Hickory/Purple heart/Cow Skin/ CowBone/ Cow Horn/Silk/linen/Rawhide/B50 For the Flemish twist/ One big experiment/whew!
Had to change the backing a bit.
 adjusted the tips(still twisted) but shoots ok. Not Bow of the month material.Its not primitive enough.Good Target Bow.
