This bow is a show piece. Made from a propeller and side twisted piece of hackberry, which have one natural reflexed and another deflexed limb. All correction made there to show the guys the methods.

The bow made in 24 hours 56ntn 50# at 26 draw.

Yeah, that is another beauty. The tiller looks spot-on and the paint always looks interesting on the back. I'd call it show piece for sure.

Thank you guys!

The back painted with a little piece of wood and finger. Used powdered charcoal mixed with hide glue for the black lines and red plum fruit for the purple parts. It is not 100% finished yet. String, gripp and top coat still missed.

Great all natural bush bow!, Great to see the skills of working out the complications while in the field. Love the design and looks like it would be a great shooter well done.
