Title: Latest Pathfinder youth bow
Post by: TimZeigler on March 29, 2010, 10:42:00 AM
Just wanted to share the finished pics of my latest youth bow.  This one will be going to my nephew.

Figured Maple riser, with accent strips of Osage, Mahogony and Phenolic.  Limbs are skinned black glass, and Maple with Maple wedges and overlays.

Big thanks to Kenny M for the core lams, the black glass and wedge stock.  And special thanks to Snakewood3 for the skins he sent.  The pics really don't do them justice.

Thanks for the kind words all.

Greg, it was great to finally meet you and all the other members that I've corresponded with over the years.  I had an excellent time and look forward to doing it again.
