Title: New bow for grandson
Post by: longbow565 on June 11, 2013, 11:58:00 AM
I just built this bow for my grandson. It is 60" 48#@28" maple core, brown glass and shoots really well. I am excited to give it to him. Only have to wait till august. This is my 5th laminated bow. Lots of thanks to Mike Bird he is a great resource.

Well i ought to be good at it by then. Lots of practice. I might even have to keep one if I miss the weight.
