Big knot bow

(1/4) > >>

Selfbowman:
Well I went to Branson then I was close to Jim Hammer so I went to see him and check on his wood supply. He was low on staves but had 100 or so bow blanks. I bought a few bow blanks because they had the wood I like in them. Here is a couple of his character bow blanks . I seen the one with a big knot at the fade and it challenged me to see if I could make it work with out braking.

Selfbowman:
Two character blanks

Selfbowman:
I spent about 4 hours on the heat bench getting the bow straight to my liking. Put the tip overlays on.

Selfbowman:
Here is just how big the knot is. That being at the highest stress point makes it interesting.

Can’t wait to see this develop. I have faith you got this.
