I've not change the pup recurve design in about 4 years and it was time to make new forms so I came up with this...
(http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f301/jillanmike/09puprecurve001.jpg)
I redesigned the pup recurve with a thinner riser with less curve on the back, resulting in more limb than before giving it about another inch of draw. This one is purple heart, action 'boo cores and black glass, 36" long, and 22# @ 20" (it's the prototype, it came out a bit heavy)

No need to be a photographer, when you build bows like you do.Big Ed :thumbsup:
Awwwh :) Isn't that a cute little thing! :D
Very nice work!
That looks great. Will the one I just ordered from ya come like that?
Daniel, yes it will, my old form has out lived it's use.
That's a fine looking bow. If I was kid, I sure would save up my nickels and dimes to get me one. ;)
I cant wait for my little one to get big enough to shoot one, because i have had my eyes on one of these for a while.
Looks great
That looks like the perfect color for a little girl :pray:
Very nice!!
Great looking bow Mike!
Great looking bow Mike. I'm going to need one as some point. My grandson just turned 5 months old. Can't wait until he is old enough to start shooting with me.

Just showed the pix to my Mae-Mae..."that's really cool daddy"
Mike. I just got the pup yu sent me for my daughter karen. The "cupid Bow". is it from the new design or one of the last from the "classic" design. It looks great and I can't wait to give it to her on Thursday. It is her birthday and the bow and quiver I got from Mike at MAL is a real cool combination.

Mike,
I like the improved version -- it looks like a real winner!

One more thing, I've had some requests for this bow, I don't sell my successful prototypes, I figured I'd better get that outta the way, sorry.
But you can contact me and I'll make you one.
Mike, I sure like the looks of your prototype. I promised my nephew a bow. I may be in touch. Shadow
Mike, please don't change the adult bow designs. If you do I will have to start saving my pennies again. Not sure you could improve on that recurve you made me! I love it!
ttt, the cupid bow Sarah was selected to be caretaker of, is very very nice..
Very nice workmanship..
That looks terrific Mike! :thumbsup:
Very nice Mike.
Emily is still having a great time with her Pup we reviewed.

Good lookin bow again Mike. :bigsmyl: )
GO GO Mike. :clapper:
Thanks hera, It means alot coming from you. I'll be the first to tell you, I take some bad pics, :knothead: Most of the problem is My "new" Camera is actually about 7 years old, and a 2.0 mega pixel, and the other part of my problem is I'm a hopeless titewad, :help: and as long as that camera is working I'm not sprlurging for another. I've had a few offers to take pictures for me and I really thank those that offered, but there again, My name is Mike Mecredy, I am a titewad, I'm sick and need help :help:
What is the turn around on one of those? And what would you suggest for a 2 1/2 year old for weight? I think that I have found what I want for my son (who is 2 years and 2 months old right now.

My Mae-Mae's bow is on the way....I'll get some nice pic when it gets here...thanx again!
Mike, I don't think 2.0 mega pixel is too much of a problem. I think with a tripod the pics will be better. :campfire:
Yeah Guru, the one I sent her is identical to the one pictured here, but 10# lighter.
Hera you're right, I do need a tripod, I'll check the yard sales today (remember that titewad thing)
Mike, Excuse me, but what does "titewad" mean? I checked the dictionary and even googled it, but nothing came out. :banghead:
Titewad means he does not like to spend his money. Nice bows by the way Mike. I think there are plenty of us who are glad you are a tightwad so you can keep selling these bows at this price.
Take Care..Henry
Henry
Thank you. :coffee:
