Sinew backed white oak

[Kegan]

Thanks everyone ! It's thanks to all the wodnerful people and influence here that my bows are getting to where they are .

Jawge- The belly of this one is actually pretty flat. Only thing rounded is the very edges (I roughed this one out months before I started radiusing bellies). The frets are from a section of the stave that was deflexed more than the rest of the bow (you can see it slightly in the full draw picture).

If it gets worse I'll path it up, but right now I'm having a blast shooting this thing- it shoots where you point it and knocks over whatever it hits .

....don't worry about those frets, can't change things now ,....I wager they'll be O.K.

Nice lookin bow I've heat treated oak already and it seems to really help the profile,well done Hammertime

Thanks everyone !

I've been shooting this bow alot lately, and I have to say I'm a big fan of this style and of sniew. Despite the weight, draw length, narrow width, and short bow length it still stands striaght and shoots very hard, and the TB III and spar urethane seem to be keeping all this rain we're having lately from giving the sinew/Knox any troubles. Come processing season I'll be trying a little harder to get in contact with the local deer processor for legs/sinew- I think I've found my new favorite style

You've improved greatly, Kegan. It's neat to see. Good job!

Hey, it's obvious that your bowmaking ability and your bow drawing ability have greatly increased since you were first posting!
Progress can be lovely.

Kegan, you have made some dandy's, but I like this one the best! If'n I could draw it, I would try to talk you out of it...lol

[Kegan]

Thanks . I've become a huge fan of this design, as I don't think my heat gun is strong enough to give my bows as full a temper as I could, so I intend to post many more of this design in the future
