Bownarra's bow
bownarra:
I'll get a full draw picture this afternoon.
I shot it some this morning to get some speed figures on it. 11 gpp 175 - 180 fps, with 9 gpp 195 - 200fps.
Yes it is 5 piece.
Handle is hornbeam, limbs maple and tips black locust. I love locust for tips sections as it bends nicely, is stiff for its thickness and nicely hard and durable. Same it doesn't grow here. I may have to see if someone has any to trade!
JNystrom:

DC:
Beautiful. I was hoping for an unbraced picture.
