Title: Hhb
Post by: Enharrington on February 11, 2015, 04:52:42 pm

This is an hhb bow I made over the summer.  Not tillered write for the design.  I have a bad habit of trying to make it bend too much out of the handle.  It is hhb with inch wide handle   Four inch fades to 1.75 inch wide  limbs to half inch tips.  Hhb is great wood.  But I believe my off tiller led to a large sliver lifting on the back.  I super glued it down and wrapped it all with sinew and Hyde glue.  The stain is a black walnut stain I made and deer fat. Finish

  I have the same bad habit on some designs.

It ain't terrible, though!  Looks like it'll shoot.
