Title: hickory hunting bow
Post by: Keith Wolfe on July 17, 2016, 09:34:00 AM

This one is being delivered this morning. This is the one I asked for help with last week. It went fast since he didn't want the full buffed out finish so I did 3 coats wipe-on poly each limb plus the handle each time so six on the handle. 68", 1.75" limbs. 58lb draw and getting 157-160fps on the chrono.pictured with extra long draw to account for his at 29". Mines 27.5".
