Title: New hunting bow....and a "kudos" to the bowyer
Post by: GMMAT on February 10, 2010, 03:34:00 PM
Lots of you guys know my dear friend pebowbender (tradgang member).  He's been building his own 2pc and 3pc longbows for a while, now.

Recently, he started on another....and I have to give credit where due.  He's absolutely outdone himself with his latest addition.

Here's what he started with (1st progress photo)....

And...the almost finished product....

He's a helluva bowyer; an accomplished hunter....and a great friend/mentor.

Great job, buddy!

Thanks for the kind words Jeff! Wish I would have started sending pics earlier in the process lol. Maybe we can take this new stick to one of the shoots this weekend and break it in.

Great work as usual Page. I have no doubt that in you hands It will be a tack driver. I'm getting ready to glue up a couple new sets of limbs. I doubt they will look as good as yours. Don
