Longtime reader, new member here. I figured what better for a first post than some pictures of a new bow. I recently purchased a secondhand Dale Arner longbow, 64", 50# at 28". It has a zebrawood and wenge riser with an elm and bamboo core and black limba veneers, which I learned from Dale here on Trad Gang. Great craftsmanship, straight shooter, and easy on the eyes.

Gorgeous bow! Like the looks of that grip.
Dale builds some superb bows that really perform, and at a very competitive price I might add!
it's backwards!
Everyone I have owned has been a great shooter. Have a 3 piece longbow that is in the keeper 5 bows.
I have bought two used bows (not his own work) from Dale and in each case he neglected to mention that he had completely refinished the bow to better than new...the man is the real deal

Yes very nice bows, Dale did a heck of a checkering job on a bow for me several years back. Very talented.
