I finished a new maple bow today , it´s 172 long N/N and pulls 42# @ 28".
The tipoverlays are made from Morado ( braz. rosewood??

thats a slick looking bow. good looking tiller. personally i would probably find it very distracting having a window behind my tiller tree

prob pretty relaxing as well.

Nice looking bow, but it's vey difficult to see your tiller at full draw, with the window in the background.

Man at 172" NTN you must be a big dude, remind me never to argue with you eh

Really nice looking bow and maple makes a fine bow eh, I see you also have two moving targets to practice on

Nice looking bow. I like the idea for the ID tag off the grip, is it antler? On your full draw pic on the tree, it looks like you're getting close to a 90^o string angle.

Nice bow! Tiller looks good....I like maple from the little I've used it, and I plan to use it more.

Got your neat little maple bow bookmarked for May Self BOM fun. Upload another full draw if you get the time.

The window behind the tillertree....quiet simpel : just look ad the bow and not out of the window

@ Aosda: yes, its antler.

Another full draw pic ok:

Nice work. Looks great

Bow looks great! The tip overlays look more like purpleheart to me. Any Brazilian rosewood I've worked work (for guitars and such) is much darker brown. Of course it could be just the light of the camera shot.

That is a real nice bow. I really like the way it looks at full draw.
