Just wrapped this one up after a long, long build. Spent more time thinking than tinkering      . Its 67" ntn and draws 50 @ 28.5. The limbs are Osage sister billets and the I-beam riser is purple heart sandwiched between goncola alves. The skins are broad banded water snake. Clint will be along shortly to post pictures for me. I wouldn't use Photosuckit if my life depended on it!

Thanks for looking guys

Here are the pictures of Pearly's bow.  


 

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

 

Very nice, Chris.

Cool. Very cool. Bows with class need wear no glass.

fantastic bow...

really liked your design..

That's F$#*}**¥} sexy as H*#%!!!!!!!!!

That is a whole new genre of bows! The self-limb, exotic handle takedown somethingorother! Wow    

Thanks guys. Its a smooth shooter. A bit heavier mass wise than I'm used to my wood bows weighing, but that's all part of the 3 pc game I suppose. Some day I will make a few more sets of various all wood limbs for it. Maybe even get some glass limbs laid up one day.

The tinkering and thinking shows!

That is a leading edge piece of work.  I think we will be seeing it emulated in the future.

WOW!!! I can see jaws dropping at 3d shoots.
Dave.

How long is that riser?

13" from tip to tip. I made it as short as I could. I knew my limbs were going to be long(er) and I tried to keep my O/A length respectable by shortening the riser. The limb beds are 3.0" long

Very nice work. Haven't built a takedown in a while but this is inspirational.

Really like that the limbs are self-limbs not laminated.

Benny I personally trust a solid osage self limb more than any combo of laminations and glue. That's just my take on it.

Beauty....
