Title: Hickory Flat Bow (pics added)
Post by: burchett.donald on December 09, 2013, 03:33:50 am

    Wanted to post this hickory bow but it rained here all day :(  I will post all the pics this weekend if weather permits and I can get out in some good light.  Yes I know I won the busiest background contest but couldn't help it, was stuck in the shop finishing this one up.

Good pictures? Heck Don, you posted the picture that matters most. It bends evenly, the rest is just eye candy for us bow porn addicts! Its refreshing seeing it done backwards. Post the full draw, then try to get more pics later.

Great tiller! Looks like a finely crafted Hill style bow from the pic.
