This was a bit of fun to use up some left over pieces. 40ish#@14. 24 inches long. Hornbeam handle and rowan for the rest of the core, deer leg sinew, croaker bladder glue.
I have made up some little hazel arrows and it doesn't half punch them out. I'll see if I can chrono some shots today.

osage outlaw:
Very nice work.  That would have fit right in at the Marshall shoot last summer. 

stuckinthemud:
Super cool, I like that!

mullet:
That would be a nice Carriage bow. Or, it would be cool seeing your 8 year old shooting a real horn bow for a first bow.

mikekeswick:
Thanks fellas!
I chronoed it yesterday with a 300 or so grain arrow and it did about 165fps average with a 14 inch draw. I made up a flight arrow for a bit of fun with it and will launch it later today. It is about 120 grains.
