Title: Just finished a new bocote/zebrawood LB with PICS
Post by: warden415 on June 21, 2008, 07:02:00 PM
Well I just got the finish on this bow yesterday. I completed the bow a couple months ago but with coaching softball, work, and family obligations, I just put the finish on it yesterday. This was my first attempt at "footing" limbs and it proved to be a challenge! Learned a few tricks the hard way! This one has bamboo cores, the limbs are very nice bocote and pommele zebrawood. The splice is two strips of maple and one walnut. The riser is bocote with black and tan micarta stripes. Tulipwood accents and Black and white ebony on the front and tip overlays.  Bow is 58" and 50@28

Deertraks, unfortunately I won't make it to ATAR this year. It was a great shoot when I went. Just too many irons in the fire this year to make it. Steve
