« on: April 17, 2011, 10:55:28 pm »
Here is one I just finished up,a reflex deflex,hickory and bullsnake backed osage with a walnut riser and bocote tip overlays.The bow is 64 inches tip to tip.inch and a half at the widest and narrows down to a half inch at the tips and the riser is a inch and a half tall.The bow is 50#@ 26 inches.The bow is finished with 7 coats of tru oil and a old piece of leather for the grip.It is a hard hitter.
