Title: Want to see pictures of bows w green glass.
Post by: 7 Lakes on March 15, 2013, 09:37:00 AM
Please post pictures of your bows with green glass.  I'm down to my last two pieces and thinking about ordering more but would like to see all the different shades first.

Here are some pics of a bow that my Dad made back in the late 70's.  I refinished the limbs and put the snakes on the face side.

I love that green glass.  I would not have put the snakeskins on had I not had another set of green limbs on another similar bow.

Here's my Northern Mist Shelton with green glass back, white glass belly, and bubinga riser - it is a great combination.

Nice pictures! I have a green Baraga on the way from Northern Mist.....I can't wait.

Not sure what it is about that green glass. I like it a lot.

Very dark forest green glass on the Maulding.
The bow on the left is a Colt Woodsman recurve,with pea soup green glass.

Hey Shedrock, who built that take down.  I think that's the color I'm looking for.

Is that a Pronghorn take down in the pictures above?

Gordon's will make about any color you want...BUT... you have to buy an entire run...about $10K worth of glass.

Nick, that Bighorn has some fine looking glass on it. Love these pics. Keep em coming. I'm considering having Steve whip me up a Lean Green arrowing machine just because of this thread...

It showed up quite dark due to the lighting in the photos, but my '73 Shakespeare Necedah has nice deep-dark-green glass.
