Title: trade bow...fd p2
Post by: soy on September 27, 2012, 06:54:39 pm

Hello everybody I got a package yesterday( now the mailman can roam freely :laugh: )
 It is an ocean spray Static Recurve( unfortunately I forgot to take down the stats) I will put those down when I get the money shot taken unless the builder put some in first. all I can say is that it is a unique piece of art , full of character , 1 of a kind masterpiece. it shoots where you are looking , and does it with authority! Thank you sharpened

Man that's a beauty! I guess the was someone later than me on the deadline  ;).
I'd like to know how he did those statics. I've had a hell of a time tryin to convince Ocean Spray to bend like that.

The bow is 54" total length and 55 or so lbs at 26". It is from a natural de-flex stave. A logical chioce for a short bow...

I tried dry heat first, it didnt work so well... The tip has be reconstructed. Ive shot the bow hundreds of times, it gonna hold...
I then boiled the other end, it worked much better. Could have used a bit more time though.

Despite it's flaws, I'm very happy to pass it on.
I'm glad your enjoying it Soy.
And thanks for posting some pics, I havnt put hardly any of my bows on the forum.

Btw.
It's a proven killer.
