Title: another one down!
Post by: doulosparachristos on August 14, 2013, 09:35:56 pm
So I have a dear friend that told me " I haven't done any archery since I as a kid (over 40 years) I would like to come over and do some shooting", so this is my answer. He hasn't seen it yet, and I hope he likes it, and I hope it brings back some of that childhood nostalgia of our first longbow! Its Pacific Yew, about 50# @ 28'', and is 65" T2T. all critiques are welcome so I can fix anything before i surprise him with it later this week. thanks;)

My only problem with it is that it's not mine! That's a classy looking bow with a text book tiller. Well done.

He wont appreciate it at all. I would though so if you want to send it across the pond where an ELB belongs I would be happy to give it a home.

You've surely done that piece of Yew justice. I suspect that will be a lovely bow to shoot.
