Title: Newest TD recurve leaving tomorrow
Post by: Trux Turning on February 13, 2009, 06:50:00 PM
Built this for a friend I met last elk season. He was looking to get rid of his wheels and go traditonal. This bow is 60" 58#@27", leopard wood riser with a little elk antler on the front and zebra wood limbs.Hope he gets some use out of it.

Thanks for the kind words- when I went to build Will a bow I couldn't decide between zebra wood limbs or osage- I ended up ordering both so I have an excuse to build the osage one now. Here are a couple of pictures in the rough stage-need get the riser glued up and in the solar oven.
