"# 0050" a Guava Hunting Bow...Full Draw Pics
« on: April 09, 2012, 11:46:08 pm »
Definatly rusty on all facets of bowmaking  ;D

but I'm really happy how this has turned out, it was quite a challenge to tiller since it weaves back and forth and rides on different plains

a Typo,..it's actually 45# @ 27"

64" ntn, the skin is from one snake but it was a bit short, ence the wraps where I added some skin































Tomorrow I'll take Braced and Full draw pictures  ;D ;D ;D

Impressive as ever Manny. You haven't lost a thing in your time off.  Another great looking bow on the list of many, "Manny" bows

Anyone else notice the shark eye in the handle???  You meant to do that, right Manny?

Another nice work, bud!  I'd take the worst of your work and consider it a gift beyond measure.  Nice to see you haven't given up on bows totally.

A Manny bow! Great to see your work again. The new guys here are in for a treat seeing the bows you produce.

Be sure the full draw shots are the traditional Manny ones, with flip flops of course. :)

Good job NP. No full draw pic?
