Hi guys - I thought I'd share a short recurve I just finished up. It will be just the ticket for in blinds and other close quarter situations where limb interference could be a problem. It was my first time working with macassar ebony, I really like it a lot. The accent stripe and tips are cocobolo. The specs are 54" 55# @ 28".
Thanks for looking.
-Jay

Man that's a good looking bow- great job!!
I like it. It looks a lot like my old Browning Nomad Stalker, only a lot prettier.
Very nice work. Cocobolo and ebony look great.
Beautiful! I like how you got the grain in the cocobolo to almost match the grain in the ebony below the shelf there!
Man, I really love that macassar ebony in the riser! Well done!!
That is stunning. Great job!
Very nice, like those clean and simple lines. Bue--.

Beautiful bow, Jay. Nice job.
Is there any finger pinch with such a short bow at 28" of draw?
Simple and elegant, very nice recurve. I am beginning to really enjoy the shorter recurves. Love yours.
Beautiful! :thumbsup:

Rick.
real nice curve well done :thumbsup:
Thanks everyone, I appreciate the compliments.
Stan - This is the shortest bow that I've made and I was pleasantly surprised at how it shot. I don't have any issues with finger pinch with it thought I shoot 3 fingers below which helps a bit.

That's a super piece of macassar ebony, and the quality of your work is top-notch! Jay just ordered another piece of ebony that he will make into a 64" longbow for me. I can hardly wait! :clapper:
