Hi Guys.
I just finished my new bow (thanks to all the great people here that helped!).
It`s White oak backed Ipe. 64" long (a bit short due to grain run-out), reflex-deflex design. Very slim- 1 1/2" width tapering
/to 3/8" tips. 7/8" thick. Tiller isn`t perfect, but I`m pleased with it.
This bow is a first timer for me in some ways- first time with ipe, first time using wood backing, first time I glued
an arrow shelf (instead of cutting it into the bow).
Well, enough talk`n, here are some pics:
