yew stave split for 2 lighter weight bows for local youth group prize and raffle
superdav95:
Thanks for the comments guys. I greatly appreciate your input. These two bows will be well suited for young archers.
As for the raffle bow giveaway I’ve decided to donate a yew billet bow that I finished up recently. It’s an ambidextrous bow and is a smooth shooter. It’s a 64” yew billet bow that draws 55lbs at 28”. It’s speed is very good and it shoots accurately and consistent. I’ve got approx 180 shots through this bow now. String runs right down the middle and suitable as left hand shooter. It’s got buffalo horn tips and handle overlays. Beaver tail arrow pass on either side. I was getting consistent speeds in mid 180’s with 500 grain arrow. I haven’t figured out how to post a raffle online or on here for those interested in one of my bows. The raffle draw will be occurring on the 13th July this year. Each ticket is $20. I’m not sure if it’s against pa rules to post bow raffles I’m sure administrators here would know. 100% of the proceeds will go to a local youth group fundraising effort. Thanks for looking!
Here’s a quick video for viewing the bow in action.

You got it Art! The bow is on display at my buddies bow shop with tickets. I’ll grab one for you or more if you like and get your name in there for the draw.

Gorgeous work as always, Dave. Those bamboo bows with the siyah curves sure grab my attention.
Regarding Glisglis's comments about kinds not being able to appreciate great work like this: I think he's right. I even notice it with my Badgerling, who seems more mature and appreciative than most. Kids are trying out everything and tend not to stick with anything for too long. But I figure with kids it's all about planting seeds, putting those good ideas in their heads. Sometimes those seeds might not sprout until years later...but they often do.

Wow in every which way. They all came out great. The side plates on the yew billets are awesome!
