hey guy's this is a sinew backed ash bow in the west coast design, she's 54" ttt and pulling about 53# @25" , it's a few inches longer but I got all the demension's from the Ishi bow in one of the book's, I had about 3" of reflex to star and she's pretty flat now(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/ishi%20bow/29ae0fa4-f063-4b86-9828-acbf18bbd88f_zps4cd1fb8f.jpg) (http://s623.photobucket.com/user/bubncheryl/media/ishi%20bow/29ae0fa4-f063-4b86-9828-acbf18bbd88f_zps4cd1fb8f.jpg.html)

here's the full draw best I could get with my phone i'm at a slight angle, that arrow is a full 31" so i'm probably drawing it 27"-28",one rabbit silencer on it, and I got the idea for the design from either Jim Hamm's book or native American bows and arrows both good book's, shoot's pretty smooth for the layout just a hair of a buzz on release, hope y'all like her(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/ishi%20bow/dba6af49-07f1-4b39-874b-55b2e4f17dfd_zps5500d367.jpg) (http://s623.photobucket.com/user/bubncheryl/media/ishi%20bow/dba6af49-07f1-4b39-874b-55b2e4f17dfd_zps5500d367.jpg.html)

Tiller looks spotless to compliment the art work. Very nice.

Any aboriginal significance to the paint job?

I used the basic design from a bow from a book, so I'm sure there was significance, at least to the builder

Great bow Bubby, esp. like the tiller on that one. Missed that one.
What's about trying out natural pigments? I'm sure you will like them.
-
thanks guy's, simson I used milk paint for the white, the rest was craft paint I had on hand, but I plan on getting some pigment paint
-
Your shorties are so cool. Love it. It amazes me that you get so little set on such short bows. Its a testiment to your tillering skills.
