Title: Warf a NEW bow?
Post by: elk ninja on February 23, 2007, 05:52:00 PM
I am thinking about cutting up a new longbow I just made and transform it into a TD...anyone ever done this?  IF I do it, I am going to use a wood riser that is yet to be built...

Any ideas on where to cut her up?

By the way, you don't need to ask me "why".... I cut it for a lefty by accident, it's my first bow, so I am not super excited to sell it, and there hasn't been a whole lot of traffic to buy it... so maybe I have a continued project on my hands.

What do ya'll think?

elk ninja your bow looks like the perfect candidate for a 3-piece conversion. I wouldn't hesitate to use it.
