new shorty ash bow
« on: October 30, 2012, 11:35:34 pm »
Just finished this one up. It's 56", 46#@27". Thought I'd give this one a paint job. Made this for someone else, but liked it enough to make one similar for myself. Thanks for lookin!

Wow, having worked my fair share of ash, I would say you are really making that wood work for its living....

Nice job, Dave!! Love that bend, for sure!!

Thanks everybody! Forgot to mention the tips are flipped slightly. It did take some set, but I'm not worried about it. It seems to be shooting great. Still working on it's sister bow.

Sounds good Rich!! This one is gonna be on it's way to Ohio, end of the week. But I am working on one with the same dimensions, very similar, and I have an even shorter osage bow that would fit perfect in one of them ground blinds of your's ;D I would love to come and hunt with ya!!
