Title: Finished 2 58 inchers FULL DRAW PICS ADDED
Post by: Dmaxshawn on February 08, 2010, 09:54:00 PM
Heres my first attempt at a S-curve in the riser its off a bit but I went with it and it came out OK.  Osage riser and Mordillo lams from Kenny.  Cow Horn tips.

great job!  the nocks show lots of attention as does the shelf...the limbs look narrow?  I like them.   :)   A full length pick strung and unstrung would be great.

Nice work on both of them- really like the wood choices in the second one- I vote for a couple more pics along with a full draw photo too.

Shawn, I had the same problem with photobucket. What I have to do is click on pic to enlarge it then the things come up that you click on to copy pic.

Brad thats the one.  Its a really nice profile and its absolutely dead in the hand and whisper quiet.  I know its quiet because I missed twice one afternoon on pigs they didnt even move when I shot.  

Robert still no worky.

Lonestand it shoots darn good and absolutely whisper guiet.  I hunt with one like this one and its quick and quiet.  

9.72 gpp = 186 fps

and dead in the hand zero nil nothing.  I guess I got lucky on timing and till  :)

I'm the very proud owner of the bubinga one.

And it shoots about three times as good as it looks...

And it looks beautiful.

Shawn does some amazing work.   :notworthy:    :notworthy:
