Title: TD longbow #2
Post by: Jim Rocole on January 27, 2012, 03:30:00 PM

This is my second Take down. 64" 49#@28" Charcoal dymonwood riser painted flat black with green mtn(flat grain) camo limbs. Definetly my best work but I did learn a couple of things. Definetly need to build a jig for the limb nocks and take a lot more time with the limb alignment holes in the limb and riser. My favorite part is shaping the risers.
