Red Oak recurve v2
« on: July 21, 2020, 02:56:26 pm »
Hello guys!

Here is my latest work. It is red oak recurve. I tried a bit unusual finish this time. I used natural leather and some painting on the back. It was my first time I applied more agressive recurves on my bow. It took some set but shoots very very well!  (AT)
The bow draws 45lbs at 28".

Have a great day!!!  )W(

Very nice red oak recurve. Is it from a board or stave?

I’m always amazed at how aggressive yet graceful your recurves are.

Red oak boards and red oak staves are 2 different animals in my experience. The red oak staves I've used over the years are far superior to the red oak boards I've bought at Lowe's.
 Agan, very nice recurve.   :OK

Impressive, especially if it is made from a store bought board. I would like to have the full specs and front and side profiles. Thanks.
