Post by: kennym on June 08, 2008, 08:08:00 PM

Finally sprayed the last coat on my wifes bow and finished up another this past weekend. Both 62" hybrids,tho off different forms. Hers is 25# @ 28",zebra riser w/purpleheart veneers and a red elm core,the other(WAS gonna be my hunt bow for the year) ended up at 43 # @ 28",curly hickory back,cedar belly,red elm core,walnut riser w/osage accents,it is another test bow(sigh) :knothead: . Made a rookie mistake and had a bad lam slippage. Ended up real narrow and bout 10 # lite.Heres a few pics.....

Real nice lookers there. I especially like hickory. It is a very underated wood IMO.

Thanks guys,the hickory lam that slipped is still not quite to the edge of the glass,hard to see,but there. Too bad,I tried some different stuff on it,was hoping to have 50-55 #s to test against last years huntin bow. It seems to be more accurate ,at least for me with my less than perfect form! LOL
