Title: Vine Maple longbow
Post by: Sagebrush on September 10, 2020, 09:17:39 pm

This is a vine maple bow from billets chopped out of my friend's yard during a landscaping project.  61 inch ntn.  About 64 lbs.  Took maybe 0.75" of set.  Koa handle, Koa and elk antler tips.  Antler cross section for the shelf.  A zippy little thing.  I think I'll use it for bear/elk next week.  Thanks for looking!  Let me know what you think of resizer app.

Thanks guys.  It shoots great.  I rarely keep bows very long.  I think I'm keep it at least through the season before I give it to my buddy wo supplied the wood.
