Good profile at full draw, the aesthetics are very pleasing. I like the diamonds along the limbs. Shoot well!
Nice Bow
thanks it shoots great and handles well at that length . its hard to find a tougher combo than hicory and ipe.
Ken, did you glue this bow up all at one time?
Where in GA are you? I grew up in Sav'h.
Sharp lookin bow
pat i actually built the bow as a hic backed ipe and came out lighter than i wanted . added another hic and jacked the weight up.im in the southwest corner Blakely
thanks Dave
Sharp bow, Ken. What is the thickness of the two pieces of hickory? Did you use two standard hickory backings?
