Thanks Bob! I bought the plans from Kenny this fall when I stopped by his place. Built the form in January but been busy build bows but this T/D is my next bow, need to get one built before Moose season. I'm sure glad you build one and put pictures up, now I'm excited to get one build. Time to order glass from Kenny and get to grinding lams!!

Bob where did you find the charcoal grey action wood it amazing looking ?

bigbob2 · July 02, 2018, 08:18:46 AM

Badger, I can surely recommend the design, you will be happy! Yellow wood, Kenny stocks the charcoal action wood. My personal favourite in A /wood.
