AndrewS:
 Hey guys, I will show you a new Hickory board bow I made a few weeks ago. First pics were shown in my prehistoric setup topic.
The bow is about 64" NTN long and draws 52lbs @27". It is made out of a Hickoryboard only  13/16 thick. The width is 1 1/4 inch direkt at the fade and 9/16 at the nock. The light curves are bend with dry head during belly-tempering.
The grip is build up with cork covered with a leather handle. Every limb has a decoration from fishleather.

Enjoy the pics:

Sweet bow Andrew, I like the fish decorations and the tiller is on the money.
