Finished composite hickory bow/ pics
Stick Bender:
Hands down Ed thats my favorite bow of yours I have seen especialy after starting to read Karpos book & starting to see the technoligy & craftsmanship it took to make it ,if I where you I would be real proud of it , congradulations she's a bute!! I like the fact that it turned out as you planed with only 1/2 hour tiller time. Ler us know how you do with it at the end of the month ?
BowEd:
Thanks fellas...it's a quicky compared to the time consuming masterpieces in Adams' book.Not completely in love with the full draw profile really.Should be working yet more on the outers but it's done in my book for now.A favorite for a bit of time anyway.I'll shoot it throughout the summer.Maybe try to poke a deer or two with it later.0 issues of any kind throughout with it so should last quite a while.
Aaron H:
Very cool Ed
ajooter:
That is one outstanding looking bow! I love how you stained the belly. That is some reflex on that baby!!
BowEd:
OK.....Thanks fellas.
Been shooting it most days yet.Took a slight more material off of the top limb for positive tiller.Top limb had a little more reflex than the bottom limb.It's back t 52#'s@ 28" again.Still gives the arrow 6" of set back after 6 hours of shooting.Well pleased with it.
