Yew Recurve 43#@30"
« on: June 03, 2018, 08:21:42 pm »
Here's my latest creation. It's a yew recurve backed with deer rawhide and rattlesnake skins. The bow is 64" nock to nock and pulls 43#@30". I went a little nuts doing the border on this one. Lots and lots of triangles.  :o I'm happy with the results though.

That is an awesome bow! I really love everything about it - the extra work for the paint job definitely paid off (and is starting to become one of your trademarks) and I really dig the beautiful shape of the tip overlays! Great job, Weylin!
Please don’t ‘forget’ to enter this beauty for BOM...  ;)

It looks great and the triangles are sharp...but those overlays stand out to me.  Very good looking bow.

Great looking bow!  Love the snake skins and art work.  I've always enjoyed seeing what comes out of your shop.
