I finally got a bow almost perfect and definitely have arrived at the design that works best. Bow, takedown longbow 64 1/2" RD 16" riser with 66" limb template. This one burgundy action wood with clear glass belly and black glass back. The pictures really don't do the color justice. Finish 9 coats Devcon 2 ton epoxy and 2 coats Minwax satin spar. I named it the Purple Finch.
