Title: Just something about yew and sinew.....
Post by: YewArcher on May 22, 2007, 12:20:00 pm

ohhh boy! I have missed making bows. Have been super busy these past few months. I sinewed a few bows prior to taking some time away for other obligations. Now they are comming off the racks like hot cakes! Here is a prelim on the Achumawi that I am getting rolling on: 44" yew heart wood and sinew, 45#@23". More to come on this one as she gets wrapped up in the next few weeks but was to excited not to share :)
