Title: my first sage bow
Post by: chessieboy on October 31, 2007, 08:46:26 am

This was my first sage bow. Tiller might be a little off but I love it anyway. Positive critism welcomed. Sorry the specs are 66" T2T. 55# @ 28". 1" of set for 10 minutes after unstringing. The two pin knots are hidden by the leather grip. Its a little snakey but not too much for the first time. It took some dry heat to get it moved to be even that much in line. As is now its almost center shot. I love the way it shoots.

 
Thanks
Bill

Beautiful bow,nice job.You probably could have got a little more bend toward the fads
but other than that it looks fine.If it shoots good that is all that matters. :)
