Heres a sinew backed yew bow about 63 inches long and 45 @ 27 inches. holds some reflex plus the recurves. The bow shoots very well and I like the way the paint job turned out. I also made some cane arrows with bonw points, theyre pretty long about 34 inches long.

Gorgeous bow! Great tiller.
I don't normally like decoration on bows but I love the traditional paint job.

Masterful, as always.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Beautiful bow.  I bet you put a lot of time into that one.  How long did you give the sinew to cure and I'm curious how many layers or grams you put on?

Nice job on that one, for sure!!
