Inaugural “junior” bow trade

<< < (43/56) > >>

Muskyman:
Sent away for a new bow scale before completing my trade bow. Just to double check that the one I have isn’t junk. Should be here within a week. Then I’ll check weight and hopefully go ahead and finish my bow.. I’ll post a few pictures when I get done. Shot about 10 more arrows through it today and it shoots pretty good. Probably have put around 200 or so shots through it and seems to be okay.

Muskyman:
Calling my bow done. Ended up making 3 bows total. First one is my backup bow dyed with fibbings dark brown stain. 47 lbs at 27 inches.
Next is the first bow I started and got it whip tillered and spliced a thin piece of wood on the belly. It is stained with walnut husks I picked up in my yard. 39 lbs at 27 inch draw.
Last one is my proposed trade bow. It’s stained with my walnut stain I made.
Never could get it to 50 lbs as many times as I tried. Ended up 52+ lbs at 27 inch draw. Hopefully my recipient will be ok with it.
