allright allright due to popular demand I got one more pic of the front of the BL bow. They are bl 63 inches and recurve is 58 I believe. I had all the details before but I couldnt post the pics i wasnt very  happy with it. here is the paint job on the D bow, it has spar varnish that gives it a beutiful glaze.
