Title: Whip, thumb rest, and leather wrapped. LETS SEE THEM!
Post by: TradBrewSC on April 01, 2016, 06:13:00 PM
So I have been bouncing around a new one or two piece longbow to have built..

I know Dan will wrap a thumb rest bow but can't say that I have ever seen one???

Let's see some whips if you toelke guys don't mind posting pics!

I've done it before but can't seem to find a picture.  It really looks just like the classic once you put leather on it.

I wrap my whip grip with cloth camo tape works great and just change it out when I want. I have the takedown so the tape allows me to get the grip I want and still utilize the takedown.

As someone who tries to make bows once in a while, I am always blown away when I see one of these. Just crazy how he matches the limb wedges to the riser flare.

Oh, yeah love those Toelkes too.
