Pacific Yew Flatbow (Graphic Photos)
« on: August 25, 2013, 02:12:46 am »
Cut this 2 1/2" yew back in march. While me and Carson were on our way back from Keenan's we stopped for a leak and found this dandy, when I roughed it out she took a little deflex while drying which is fine with me, turned out for the better. Always wanted an R/D type bow.

Thanks for looking

Woo! that's gorgeous.
You obviously have great great pee stopping skills  >:D
I like the look of the riidged overlay, dunno if it stops it being smooth to slide the loop up? But it sure looks cool :)
