Title: Romancing an "All American" girl!
Post by: Wannabe1 on August 14, 2018, 01:41:12 PM
While I am going to definitely enjoy the "Wesley", I am also romancing this beautiful "All American". So named, by the original owner who Craig Ekin let name it. He was allowed to name it due to the woods used in the make up of the bow. Myrtle riser, Osage belly, Juniper back w/two lams of Yew in the center. Craig said he never had a bow made up with that combo of woods and the name "All American" was born. All woods found here in good ole USA. Bow has a slight string follow. 70", 50#@30". Around 45#@my 28" draw.

Nice quiver.

Yew belly, yew core, backed with bamboo, Osage riser.

Sweet shooter.
