Title: some killer lams from Troy D. Breeding
Post by: eman614 on July 30, 2014, 04:12:00 PM
I just finished this one for my uncle. it was also my first experience with Troy and he definately did not dissapoint. the veneers looked even better in person than they did on his sight.
here is the bow. 60"tip to tip and 48#@28"

Nice bow! Did you use the spliced veneers on the belly as well? I bought a set from him and can't decide if I should use them all on one bow or just use them on the back and do two bows.

Looks wonderful, I really like the lines of that riser, though you put the shelf on the wrong side. How am I ever going to shoot it.
