2014 Annual Bow Swap

[Todd Cook]

I got a package in the mail!! I opened it up and this beauty was inside. Tradbower made this for me. 52# at 28". Seems to be bamboo trilam . I guess that's Ipe in the middle? I don't know but it sure is pretty. Thanks so much!

Nice Bow, Todd and Tradbower...

I had the swap bow pulled to 26" today, still looking very sweet and timed to perfection! Need to get to 28", but will prolly take it to 29" for insurance..

[goobersan]

best of luck to you Ink
real nice bows fellas    

[bigbob2]

great bow Shawn!Ink hope it all goes well for your young daughter.

[bigbob2]

Nice trilam too Tod and tradbower!

[tradbower]

Todd the middle lam is Brazilin Cherry , also  called  Jabota and the belly is Osage. I had it pulled to 29" on tree but I have the short draw syndrome at 24 1/4" I had a friend help me shoot it in and he draws 27" so take your time shooting it at that 29" draw length.

Ink, I'll certainly have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Hope for the best, friend!

Nice bow, Shawn!
Well done Tradbower!

Got the first coat of poly on the swap bow tonight.

hasn't rained here for ages and trying to get some finish coats on my swap bow, and I get  90* humidity  all week. No rain to speak of, just sky high humidity. Grrrrr.
