Title: First Red Oak Board Bow finished
Post by: buddyb on July 20, 2013, 11:06:49 pm

Here are a couple of pics of my first board bow completed. It's 46#@27" and 66" nock-to-nock. Here is the link, I wasn't able to get the size down to 200KB to post here. http://leatherwall.bowsite.com/tf/lw/thread2.cfm?forum=23&threadid=250577&messages=3&CATEGORY=4

Google microsoft image resizer for resizing the pics. Not a bad looking bow. We need to see a full draw pic, though.

I'll take a full draw picture soon and post it. I have a Mac computer so I'll have to find a photo resizer for it. Thanks.

Great looking first bow!

Be careful, making these bendy stick thingys can be very addicting

Good job
