Another boo - maple - osage
mikekeswick:
Sweet bow!
The bow speaks for itself...it doesn't need no fancy background ;) Try using the sky as a background ;)
Not many people can make 120#'ers - it isn't 'just another one'.

I always love seeing your work. That old chair has become your calling card. I like the angles you take pictures from when the bow is sitting on it. I know what you mewn about taking pictures though. Not only are there some gifted bowyers on here but fantastic photographers! Nice job on another one...nothing boring about it! :)...Id love to try yarnin back on that baby! >:D

Love that tiller every inch of her is working. Looks pretty good on the CD test :laugh:
Teeny bit whippy, which I like, I bet that will throw a flight arrow a loooooong way.
Aim one at my house... just point at London and shift a tad left :o

+1000! I know! :) Thanks everyone for the positive comments, :). It does seem a bit whippy to me too. It so far has 1" of set on the upper limb, and about 3/4" on the lower limb. This is one of those bows that the tillering took so long, I eventually just gave up and waved the white flag/called it done, haha. It was longer, but the weight was too low for the length. So after piking it, it wanted to twist some. It had twisted before that, so I had corrected it by taking some off of one side of the belly like you do. But once again I had to correct it. And then the tiller needed more adjustment, etc. The thing that gets me is it seems to me the very center of the bow is bending a smudge too much? Like right in the center, 6" or so? But I guess you just have to be happy with what you got sometimes. I wonder if it will be shocky?
