Hello Guys
its been a while since I posted anything, but i promise I been really busy making bows. will post more too. Heres a sinew backed yew miwok bow, 3 layers of elk leg sinew and painted with natural pigments. Thebow is 40 inches and draws 38lbs @ 22 inches. It took no follow, maybe like 1/4 but goes back to a reflex after its been unstrung. As you can see im very happy with this bow

Very cool little bow. I'm thinking about another after breaking my short sinew backed yew paddle bow earlier this summer.

Thanks PD
Thanks hrodes
Thanks hrothgar
Thanks coaster
Thanks eric
thanks Toomany
Pat sorry to hear that
I think you should make another one for yourself. I tell you, yew and sinew make a great combo, especially a bend in the handle style. I have tried both the bend in the handle and the setback handle and I have to tell you, for shorter bows the bend in the handle type bows with sinew feel so alive and shoot great.

Whats the unbraced profile? I saw a Miwok earlier in the day and it had a wild amount of reflex.

So Cesar, I suppose there's no talking you outta that one. That is my kinda bow! Never done a Miwok. Got a book on them a few months ago with all intentions of doing one. You are inspiring me! Really like your decorations. Just plain cool...

Cool little bow, Ceasar. I just laid one out at 46" the other day.

If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
