VERY R/D hybrid chrony # 2

kennym · January 29, 2007, 08:05:00 PM

I think I got carried away with the r/d,the string is very close to the belly of the limbs and she makes some noise when shot,do ya think a d97 string would be quieter?Here it is before final tiller and the finish....

now here is a few after the next to the last coat of finish.
Sorry bout the horizontal pics.

Don't know the answer to your question, but that's a nice looking bow!

kennym throw a set of catwhiskers on her.What kind of string is on her now I have b50 on my bows don't even need catwhiskers, If it's still to loud put some velcro or moleskin where the string touches the limb. OH and if it's still to loud I"LL TAKE HER!!!

Nice Kenny, bow hush and hush puppies will quieten her up or a D97 Mountain Muffler string.

Looks good Kenny. Looks like that form might be just right for a 58"er for us short bow junkies

That walnut in the handle turned out nice. Is it from the timber you had in your shop? Anyway looks like a keeper I'd give it two
