Title: NEW BOW ARRIVED !!!!
Post by: Bob B. on April 02, 2011, 03:11:00 PM
Wow!!  64 inch, 47 @ 28, (I pull 30) boo cores with one lam of black walnut, spalted sycamore back and belly, cocobolo and gancolo alves riser.

The long walker is built very rugged.  It is beautiful and real fast to boot.  It is shooting my 590 grain woodies real well and with plenty of quicks.  Chuck for twotracks used both his chrono and his 29 inch draw to come up with the followiing data: 475 grain arrow - 195 fps // 720 grain arrrow - 160 fps.

Chuck said he would post some pics her, I reckon he will in a bit.  Pretty nice bow and chuck is a great guy to deal with.     :archer:  

Bob.

I really like the spalted sycamore, but I'm curious about the Walnut lam. Is that for asthetics or lam stability?

Far rider. I asked for the black walnut because I felt it is a good core wood with a good amount of snap.  But Alos I was looking for a contrast to the boo cores.  The contrast did not do what I expected.  However, the bow has nice speed and is real smooth and stable.

Bob, that is one fine looking bow, hope she serves you well. She looks to be a shooter, like the grip.
