Title: Invictus -95 pound ELB
Post by: twilightandmist on January 06, 2013, 06:29:26 pm

This is my newest ELB, a hickory selfbow. she draws 95 pounds at 29 inches, which is the strongest bow i have made to date. it is 68 inches NTN, and i intend to get real horn nocks when i get a chance. it has taken about 1/2 inch of set, which i found very surprising. the back is trapped to half width. as always, all comments are welcome and encouraged! if there is any information you would like that you cant find here, feel free to ask about it.

 p.s. the archer's hood in the picture was made by me, and i have a few more in varying styles if you would like one. enjoy!
