Title: Some recent bows
Post by: wizardgoat on December 30, 2016, 02:24:14 pm
The last 3-4 months were very busy for me, I saw alot of bows and arrows leave my shop.
With the baby, work, the band, and very little spare time, I'd rather spend that time in my shop than on my computer.
I fell a little behind sharing photos,  I never even got to photograph a few of them due to never ending bad weather.
Here's some pics of some recent builds, I know I'm missing a couple FD shots, I always try to film myself and take screenshots but they don't always turn out.
 cheers guys, thanks for looking

a few yew bows

A bow I made for a very large man. Pulling nearly 70# at 34" draw. A little uncomfortable for me to draw apparently

Jayman, if you ever make it down this way I'd be happy to show you a couple things.
Bubbles, I've played in the same band for over 15 years now, we play hardcore punk, and are gearing up

Have to admit I probably looked more than twice Scott.
Wizard it's ok you can just keep knocking out those beautiful bows, take care of the wife and baby and do your Euro tour with your band. Just don't forget to take some pictures for us to droll over and tease us with from time to time. Thanks for taking the time to share them with us

Great work as always!  I assumed you were too busy with the new addition to work on bows..boy was I wrong.  Keep it up as long as you can - I found it became harder to work on tasks requiring concentration or chunks of time longer than five minutes once my first kid could walk!  (Yes, it's been a long 13 years.)

Post by: wizardgoat on January 05, 2017, 05:12:50 pm
Cheers guys thanks again. Timbo, I end up doing a lot of bow work after Jr goes to sleep. He's starting to pull himself up, walking is not far off
