Title: My new LHA bow
Post by: zinndl on October 24, 2010, 07:04:00 PM
Thought I'd share some pics of my new bow. It was made by Chris Sparks "Lewis Hollow Archery" it's 60" and 55# @ 28 Cocobolo riser with red elm limbs and hand carving on the riser. It's a sweet shooter! Chris is a super guy to deal with and his work speaks for itself.  (http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e148/zinndl/bows005.jpg)

Chris is an absolutely superb craftsman.  I love my Hyansanti TD longbow and you will be hard pressed to find a better bow for your buck!

Don,
That thing sure does look pretty. That carving is cool. I have one of Chris's one piece recurves and I love it. I hope we get to see some pictures with that bow and a nice buck!
