Title: Still learning. 2nd takedown recurve
Post by: perry f. on February 09, 2013, 08:31:00 PM
Here's my 2nd take down recurve. Green mountain camo riser from kennym, some red elm lams covered with artificial rattle snake skins. Turned out decent, but I'm still learning

I would say decent at the very least!!  Very nice indeed.  What length is your riser?

Very nice. I like the colors and shape.

I like that a lot. Sometimes when a bow is too fancy (i.e. $300 in fancy wood) it just doesnt seem right in a deer stand. That bow was meant to do some work and not sit on a shelf. Very nice.

Very nice. BTW I've built maybe 40 and I'm still learning. It gets to be work if you're not learning anything.

Does the artificial skin slow arrow speed?
