Title: New trade bow
Post by: kodiakkid on March 10, 2011, 09:07:00 PM
Decided not to use this one for the trade bow.

I did some damage with the heat gun. I've been shootin it and it seems to be ok but I can't send it out
So here's another one I've been working on
58" t/t and pulling 60# @ 28" right now. I'm shooting for about 55# @ 28" when finished.

Flippin tips. Borrowed this idea from PatB's build along. Works great.
