juniper paddle bow from lofflerchuck
« on: May 01, 2015, 09:55:32 pm »
Hi all, thought I would share a bow I received from Chuck Loffler. I always wanted this style of bow and I think Chuck makes a sweet bow! This one is sinew backed, 60 # at 26",54" long. I did  the paint job to give it a special touch]Thanks for looking-Hammertime

I would love more info on the design. It looks like it would work for a sassafras bow I am struggling with. Side profile of handle and tips, unstrung would help. Does Chuck post here? I could pic his brain some.
