Title: Introducing "Trinity"
Post by: Mudd on May 07, 2012, 12:35:00 PM
Please allow me to introduce you to "Trinity" made for me by Mr David Johnson.

I got two surprises upon shooting "Trinity" for the 1st time.

One is that she shoots way faster than her poundage would have led me to think and the other is instead of Psalm 37:4, she has Psalm 34:7. Both are wonderful promises.

Psalm 37:4 says "Delight yourself in the Lord and you shall have the desires of your heart" while Psalm 34:7 says "The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and He delivers them"

How cool is that?...Way!!!... I'm saying...

"Trinity" is 66" and 48@28 (SF maybe) Brown glass on the back, white on the belly and Myrtle for the riser wood.

I am positive that these pictures will not do her justice.

Great bow! Looks very beautiful.

Hope the different psalm doesn't bring your love for the bow down.  But from what the psalm is that is a very good one also.

Sweet bow Mudd! What is the limb core? Looks like 5 lams of different materials. 5 lams in a 48 pounder, that puppy must be smoooooth!
Title: Re: Introducing "Trinity"
Post by: Mudd on May 07, 2012, 05:27:00 PM
It's cedar lams but there's a short piece that goes through the riser area that I'm not sure about.

It is smooth as silk.

Thanks for all the kind words.

God bless,Mudd

No problem Mr Johnson!

I took it as a biblical message.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.

Mr Johnson did an awesome job.

Mudd, I believe the middle lamination is a short strip of yew wood. Dave has a supply of it that came from Earl Ulrich's (sp?) wood shead.

Great looking bow!
IMO, Dave is one the few bowmakers in the country that builds a bow in the true Hill style.

Mudd, You could open the book of Psalms to anywhere the pages fell open at, and blindly put your finger on a verse... and it would be a good one.
