Title: The Red Devil
Post by: KellyG on August 23, 2013, 08:04:00 PM
Well this is the bow I made for the PA Trade. It is also the first bow I have named. It is also the heaviest draw I have made.

She is dressed with Corn snake skins I traded for at MOJAM for a bull snake skin I had. The stave came from MOJAM last year. Given to me by Dean. The leather on the handle is from an old pair of combat boots. The turkey feather is from a Rio Eastern hybrid taken this spring.

Well enough jabbering here are some PICs.

Nice looking bow Kelly, I really like the skins.  Now that the bows are done you'd better get to work on finishing up that drywall, LOL.
