Title: My new R/D long bow
Post by: PEARL DRUMS on November 27, 2010, 08:33:00 AM
A very good friend of mine built this bow for me, just got it last night. Its 64", 58# @ 29. The riser is walnut and the veneers are Bubinga w/ walnut and blood wood tips and overlays. I let him pick the woods and when he described them over the phone I though it seemed an odd combo. I love it!

Close, but no cigar. I guess the link works, but I was hoping for the pic to be there. I'll get it!  (http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/m518/chrislovesjean/000_0020.jpg?t=1290865776)

He studied with Mike Fedora for a bit, thats were the the thumb rest comes in. Its my first bow with a thumb rest, takes some getting used to.
