Hickory bow for young man

This bow is 52" tip to tip and 51" ntn. 1 1/4" wide at the fades tapering even to 3/8" at the tips. It has a 4" handle that bends ever so slightly at the 20" draw. Leather grip and leather floppy rest. It is quarter sawed hickory stained with red oak stain. It draws 10# @ 18" and can be drawn out to 20". I did a little simple painting on the back.
I also made him a quiver and six arrows. This is all going to be a Christmas present.

Nice bend there Bailey. There will be a big smile on the face of the young man for sure.

That's a great looking bow and that will certainly make the recipient a happy lad on Christmas day.

That ought to make a young man happy, great little bow. Kid's bows are my nemesis, I can never get the weight I'm after.
