Post by: criveraville on September 24, 2013, 03:53:25 pm
Simson does it again with a Self BOM of the month win.  This is what he had to say:This bow is 59” ntn, HLD (hollow limb design).  Take down with homemade sleeves, one tip is wrapped, one filed selfnock.  String is 6 strands 452X, thickened at the ears with B50.

A buildalong is here: http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,41217.0.html

Asymmetrical bow, the two parts of the take down are the same length.

Here are some forum member coments on another fine win.
