Title: Bamboo and bulletwood...(pics)

Yes another one....

I made this one for my girlfriend, but don't tell her she doesn't know yet...

The bow is scaled down a bit to be more of a ladies model of the same bow I have been making. It's shorter, 60"ntn, has a smaller handle, and has a lighter and shorter draw. Pulls 35# at 26", though I imagine she will probably only get it 24" at best. I wanted her to have a bow that could easily shoot right along side me and mine even though it was a lower weight, so this bow has a bit more reflex then the others. Spliced bulletwood core, with ipe and zebrawood accents. This was my first time using bulletwood and I really like it. Tough stuff!
