Awesome! I love koa. I had a recurve made with koa cut offs I brought back from Kaual. With phenolic in the riser for strength, it is a looker as well. Good job!

Where does that koa come from... That is stunning!!

Sweet bow Shawn!

Truly a functional work of art, just beautiful!

Whoa thats hell of a beauty!

Thanks guys I appreciate it.  But like Roy said it's ok

As nice a bow as I've ever seen! Some what better than ok!      

Wow. That is sweet!

That is phenomenal!!!!

Beautifull, maybe you must do us a --show how-- on the impala horns

Earlier in the thread I had made a mistake about the finish.  That is the finish that Big jim sells its the buffalo hide finish.  


Thanks guys

That is a seriously beautiful bow.  Love the Koa.

Very stunning!!

Now that's an original! Very nice work!!

Very nice Shawn....what was the application of that finish...did you spray, wet sand and then buff?

Fantastic job!

Brad I sent that to jim he did it for me.  close to 20 coats.  yes he wet sanded between and eventually down 2000 grit, then buffed.

wow, I was just looking for pics of Koa as I am getting a Zipper Nitro with curly koa limbs. your bow is georgous! great work. I love seeing bows that others make. I am always drawn to bows with unique wood with great character.  yours ranks right up there !

I like it, rock`n roll. Bue--.  

       

Love the depth of that finish! That bow says look at me some more!
