I finished this bow in September and hunted all year with it, never really connecting with it. I changed the tiller and reshaped the last 12" of limb last week, then resealed it all. Its now 63" ntn. 57 @ 27. The skins are Canbrake and the tips are sheep horn. The grip is whitetail leather. I built a static that is twins with this one from the same tree. Same length, same weight, same caul but with different clothes....its drying now and will be posted in a few days.

I used Paint to resize them, it seemed to work a little better. They still dont look that great.

No, thats a bag target wrapped in black shrink wrap because its been shot 100,000 times or so. The shrink wrap holds it tight and together so I can eek some more life out of it.

Im flattered Will. Pappys typical bow profile is my absolute favorite to drool over!
Thanks for the kind words all.

WOW Pearls that is one fine looking bow... After talking with you your making it look way too easy... Makes me wanna beat my head against the wall. WELL DONE!!!

Nice one......funny how your guys tiller looks the same as brace, really the same shape ::) only full draw.
It's something that needs a deeper studying from us Newbies. ::)
-
Fine lookin yella stick, Pearl. I sure like the way you shape your handles. How long did it take you to get that down?
-
Real nice lines on that bow PD, looks like a hard hitter and a hunter for sure to me. Good looking skins on her too.

As always Pearl, you work is just amazing. I wished I knew half of what you did on making these fine bows.

Super easy Kenny. I will snap a few pics on the next one so you can see my layout. Its just a 4" bulbous grip with a locater and the back side cut away to reduce weight and feel better in my hand.

Guilty... I have a tendency to leave about more of the outer limbs stiffer than most. I realize its not maximized, perfect, or the best way to do it for everybody. I love the way my bows draw, shoot and feel so I keep making them the same way.
-
Wow! PD, you got some talent. Excellent work. Jawge
-
impressive work Pearl, like the matching colours osage, skin, leather and nice curves!
Simon

Here is the twin one of two.

Good looking twins, Chris. Both of them bows is worth spending time with! I think I favor the static, though.

Great looking bow Chris, very nice profile and tiller looks excellent
-
This one is really nice as well. I would say you got em dialed in PD. Guess once you reach a certain level of skill you gotta find new challenges. I have't reached that levell yet as its all still a challenge for me. Thanks for posting we all enjoy the eye candy. Danny
