Hickory backed ipe
« on: April 02, 2011, 11:24:12 pm »
Hi guys, just finished a 62" ntn 50# @27" hickory backed ipe. There is osage on the front of the riser, tips and the handle ontop of black cherry. I named it Lucky #7, because it is my seventh bow. It shoots good, it might be my turkey bow. Thanks for looking.

Not one thing about this bow isn't First Class !!! Beautiful craftsmanship all the way - put one through a nice gobbler to give it some Mojo !!!

 Very nice bow. Sweet tip overlays. A great perfect brace and full draw. You nailed that one.
