Title: New Flight Bow Pics.
Post by: Buemaker on February 19, 2007, 06:31:00 PM
This is a new flight bow I just finished. Made from Ash and Lignostone(resin impregnated compressed Beech) Lignostone is very hard and heavy and has a very high compression strength.
The bow is 60" between nocks and 55 pounds at 24" draw. Long stiff midsection and very narrow tips. I tried it yesterday, but it was more snow on the ground than I thought, so I have to wait for spring to come in order to find the arrow.
