Curvy longbow

Thanks everyone and Merry Christmas!
The finish is the worst part of bow building - it's so close to being done, it looks so pretty, you want to play with it, but you can't touch it.

I would bet that bow with a 10 grain arrow and a light string would be a fast shooter for its weight !

That sure did turn out nice John !!! Hopefully you bring it to Denton Hill and let me shoot a few arrows out of it.

I dont care who you are curly just looks good

Looks nice John. Not as good as flat camo, but nice. Can't wait to shoot it.

I won't allow you to shoot it with a fixed crawl.

Why not? You'll be shooting it that way by then anyhow...

I was under the impression that you can't hurt the tiller of a glass bow by shooting 3 under or a fixed crawl or string walking?

It's never hurt my glass bows.

canopyboy · December 25, 2018, 07:46:21 AM

It doesn't. John is just being John.

Roy from Pa · December 25, 2018, 07:57:03 AM

Ah Johns ok.

Dude sure can ride those ponies:)

Yeah, i'm just giving Dave grief about his new fancy way of shooting.

I like shooting from ponies

Roy from Pa · December 25, 2018, 12:48:30 PM

What he do, go over to the dark side?

LOL

canopyboy · December 25, 2018, 08:53:43 PM

There was a light side?

Roy from Pa · December 26, 2018, 06:09:58 AM

Ask cowboy John?

LOL

jsweka · December 26, 2018, 09:59:05 AM

Yeee Hawww....Giddie up and fling them arrows as fast as you can instinctively

Pheonixarcher · December 28, 2018, 12:55:33 AM

Nice work, but you know the rules! We need pics. Strung, unstrung, and full draw please. Lol

Roy from Pa · December 28, 2018, 09:02:36 AM

Come on Paul..

It's been raining here in Pa and you know them glass bows melt in the rain:)

Last coat of finish is drying right now. I'll be away from home for a couple days doing more family holiday chaos crap. Sunday or Monday I'll have final pics posted.
