Title: Most recent longbow
Post by: ChekDE on December 23, 2013, 06:10:00 PM
Here's the most recent bow I put together.
Riser- zebra and Bolivian rosewood.
Limbs - red cedar
Core-red Elm
Buffalo horn overlay and tips

64# @ 28"

It's fast.  Need to crono it when it's not raining.  Still need to put a final coat of finish.
