Title: A surprise from bubby
Post by: paulsemp on August 07, 2014, 11:08:35 pm
A couple of weeks ago I posted some pics of my almost 4 year old shooting her first bow. Bubby decided that she needed a quiver and told me one was on its way. Well I came home to a tube on my front porch and at first thought must be my trade bow. Nope, bubby not only sent me the quiver, he sent me a bow. Bubby and ive been talking about doing a personal trade with no time limit. Well he beat me to it 8)


 ocean spray sapling. Forgot to measure/ think 66" ntn. Im guessing about 50 lbs at my maxed out 26" draw. Hemp handle. Very rustic finish with cambrium on back,  look and feel of true primitive bow. Shoots very smooth with a great cast. Very upset I forgot to take it to elm hall. I did work a little on his bow at elm hall and should be out soon. Bub you are a generous man!

That's the style bow we all ought to be shooting. Nothing better than a "primitive" bow.  8) Very cool bow, Bubby and a nice gift for Paul.
 Yeah BB, Pearlie and I discussed a bow trade and a few weeks later I received a beautiful, sexy little hackberry bow from him. I think there is a method to their madness.  ;)

Ocean spray is probably one of the best woods for sapling bows.
great job, I love the look of this one. Nice and simple
