Hickory stick (PA Bow Swap Bow)
« on: May 20, 2012, 01:16:21 am »
Here's a few sneak peaks at my bow I'm building for the swap

 60.5" tip to tip. that's all the info I"m giving right now. LOL

 I got her braced today to about 4" and started shooting her in while scraping to get her register the change a little quicker.

 Here's a pic of the first arrow out of this bow and the following 11 at about 15 yards or so. Only pulling her about 23" so I still got to work out to full draw.

 

 

 

 I'm gonna give her a good toast on the belly tonight and leave it sit for about a week and then get her done and send her new home

You always think it won’t happen to you, well it can it will. Such is life, it ain't fair and shows no indifference. Enjoy it anyway

Lookin good, so far, Stix!!

 :o Looks like a nice meat maker to me!
Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.
