Sinew backed Ash shortbow
« on: November 18, 2019, 11:48:15 pm »
My first sinew backed ash bow. 47.5” oal, 4” brace, 44# @21”, 520 gr hunting arrow at 140fps. Never made one quite like this. What do you think?

Great finish work, very authentic. Looks like it can fling an arrow with authority!

Great to see another ash bow!
Thats a nice bow. IMO ash needs a bit more length. Can see this in your shorty as well...
In winter I wanna try and sinew a ash as well.
cheers
