Title: My son's high school grad present
Post by: critman on May 31, 2013, 09:24:00 PM
Been a while folks. I made this one for my son for graduation.  He has been a wheelie bowman but finally asked when I would make him a bow. I waited patiently while he watched me make and give away bow after bow. Finally he asked and I replied "what are you going to do with a plain 'ole stick and string?" I hope he gets years of enjoyment out of it. It's a red oak bow with antler tip overlays and an antler side plate. I will try and post some pics. The tiller is a little off after shooting it some but it really does shoot well.  (http://images.imagelinky.com/1370047608.jpg)]
