Title: "One of a Kind"
Post by: cedar swampman on March 21, 2009, 06:09:00 PM
Well Jim Belcher is making me one of his Union Jack longbows but this one will be unique as far as I know. We are attempting a D shaped deep cored longbow using foam as the core with yew veneers. Dymondwood will be used in the riser section (added weight) because of the lighter overall weight due to the foam. This bow will be between 50-55 lb @ 27" and 64" long. I have had longbows with bamboo, red elm and Actionwood and am excited to see what kind of performance I'll get with this bow. I'll definitely post pics and testing results after it is completed    :bigsmyl:
