Title: One for a Tradganger!
Post by: Crittergetter on April 19, 2018, 01:05:51 PM
Hey guys, sorry I haven’t posted much lately. Been crazy busy!! 
I thought you bow nuts would appreciate this classic combo I finished up a couple of weeks ago for a fellow tradganger.
60”-52#@28”, cocobolo/Osage, black glass and sheep horn overlays.

I normally don't comment much on FG bows, but that's an awesome bow!  I love the color combo and it's a take down... very nice.

Yeah...  Purty nice...  You caught me by surprise when I saw it was a 2 pc...  Before that I was saying, "why is he covering up that pretty wood with that skin"...  Although the leather work looks great also...

Great job.  Nothing like a leather grip that one can hold without slipping.

Thx everyone!!
 But I can’t take all the credit, this customer  picked out and provided his own woods for the riser and overlays. I just put it all together !!

Beautiful!  I like the color combination and the way you have designed the riser.  I really like the leather work ,but do you happen to have pictures of the riser without the leather grip, that you could post?
