Title: New Bows With Kenny Lams
Post by: Peckerwood on July 02, 2009, 02:19:00 PM

Work has been a little sporadic the last month so I have had some time in the bow shop. Here are a couple of pictures of recent builds. Both bows are 52 in. and made with lams from Kenny. One bow is made with a Indonesian rosewood riser and cherry lams. The bow is 51 lbs. @ 28. Second bow has  chechen Riser and curly hickory lams. It draws 53 lbs. @ 28 in.

Bill those just look great!  I love the curly hickory limbs.

How big are those things, for some reason they look short to me. (and I love a short R/D longbow...)   :D
