New HHB bow with pics
« on: September 03, 2010, 02:51:06 pm »
I have not posted for awhile (work and medical reasons) but I do have a new bow that is just finished.

            It is about 50# at 27in.  I don't have a scale and if I did I would not use it----I go by what feels good to me.
            62in long and is one of my fastest bows.  (I love hophornbeam)

Here are some more pics.  I'll put a full-draw pic on tomorrow.  The bead on the leather stitch for the handle is a fossil I found in the creek.  Thanks!

Nice looking bow. Your tiller seems OK, but it's really hard to tell in the pics.
