240's sheep horn bow build with Tom Lucas
NorthHeart:
Just received some water buffalo horn and sinew for my attempt at a composite. But ill hold off on that for now, as there is still work to be done on these sheephorn bows :BB
bassman:
Excellent bow build along. Nice bow.
NorthHeart:
Only after I’ve shot a bow hundreds of times, and added the art, will I consider it “finished”. Tiller adjustments on this one, which is my first sheephorn bow were required now and again, via pressure by hand on one limb, or with gentle heat. I decided to keep the art simple for incase alterations are necessary down the road. Oal braced 33.5” ntn. 51#@18.5”, 520gr arrow at 145-150fps. Done.
