2 pc molly curve
« on: July 10, 2013, 04:21:34 pm »
Here is my latest, a 2 piece osage molly curve with bullsnake skins and bacote tips. This bow is going to one of my good buddies that doesn't know it is coming in the mail. He shoots a glass bow now, but hopefully this will convert him. This is my first attempt at a molly type bow, but I figured might as well go all out and try to curve it too.  Filed in double nocks in case you want to use a longer string as a stringer. 61" t2t, 2" wide working limbs, 62# @ 28". Definitely my best shooter to date. Hope ya like it.

I also have to give a shout out to misslemaster. After seeing one that he made like this a while back, I had to try one out also.

I will try to round up someone to help w a fd pic.

Sweet looking bow. I'd flip if I got that in the mail by surprise!

Seems everyone is doing molly's lately

I think that bow would convert any glass-head.  Nice work, no show us the full draw!! 8)

Love the bow, need to start me one .
Quick question, are most Mollys fifty fifty on the limbs and levers or does it vary from one typ of wood to another, I'm going to start on a coffee tree stave soon and it may be my first attempt at a Molly.

that is a sweet brace shot, the only thing that bugs me is the tip overlays, seems like a short glue line, I make a longer cut on mine, but a beauty for sure

WOW!!! Stunning bow. Your friend better be blown away when he sees that non-glass bow brother, if not there is no hope for converting him. :)
