Getting close on this one. All tillers and pulling straight. 43@28 perfect old man 3D bow. Liking the grain with dye in it.

Nice.

At what age do I have to start shooting old man bows? I'm a bit confused. Seems like Roy's been shooting them forever  :goldtooth:

If 43 is an old man's bow then I'm on the verge of dropping down to a kid's bow. :)

Look good :thumbsup:
Is the mottling on the non dyed wood from stabilizing liquid?

Crooked Stic

That is actually black dye. Just not very black.

Don't know what you are using for dye, but you should be able to get that Maple to at least a dark charcoal color with alcohol dye.

Crooked Stic

It is the black dye aluminite used in cactus juice resin. Both pieces are stabilized. And I have just sucked denatured alcohol with dye in it and it tints maple pretty good.

Ya'll better quit picking on me or I'll get the thumpin list back out:)

Pretty near finish time. A little more tip shaping yet. I put the .001 superlam in this one. Moved the bend away from the fades maybe too much. Although it shoots great.
