new bow for the season
« on: August 27, 2012, 10:02:39 pm »
This is a 54" Ironwood bendy handle bow i just finished up, hope to make some meat with it this season, arrows are in the works  :) The bow pulls 52@26  Timber rattler skins, going to be a nice ambush bow  ;D


Got another in the works, thanks to the bow trade !! ;) :D :D
